Earlier this year i contacted two State Reps. to solve the coyote problems in the state. Suggested they submit a bill allowing the hunters to use modern night hunting equipment. One of them was good enough to respond. He said no bill was needed. Pa. Game Com. can change the guidelines themselves.
We are screwed. The way they DON'T work with hunters, nothing will change !
Actually, prior to 2008 hunters in Pennsylvania could not use gun mounted lights, decoys, bait to hunt coyotes. Myself and one other member of PPHA met with PA Game Commission Officials in the summer of 2007 to show the advantages of allowing these methods. In 2008 they changed the law to allow gun mounted lights, bait, decoys, and a few other changes.
Yes the PPHA worked hard for us...and we're thankful thats why,I joined normal hunters that work hard and have a huge voice for us .
