    The alert I got didn't mention deep specifics it has to be on their web site by now. Hochul is in campaign mode so signed it in now.

    I remember when I cringed when someone mentioned hunting with a CB. Now, at 68 years old, it's what I hunt with exclusively. Age will make you do funny things, but it keeps me in the game. That's what counts!

    It’s about time. I have yet to hunt with one but legalizing it them is the right move.

    I agree. It gives older folks, and others with physical limitations the opportunity to keep hunting when using a compound becomes more difficult.
