This has been beat to death and I'm afraid the milk has already been spilled. But....
The guy brings up some good points. Part of it is that he misses the old days like me. It's an age thing that happens to all of us but I believe hunting is getting out of hand.
I remember the very first "bow season" in California. Me and my buddy were about the only one's on the mountain. Wooden long bows, and cedar arrows. We never came close to killing a buck, and didn't figure we would. It was all about acting like a Indian Brave
All our friends thought we were a little strange.
Then came compound bows that you sight like a rifle and the sport exploded. Then came "bow hunters" riding in the bed of a pickup while the driver covered as much ground as possible road hunting looking for that unsuspecting buck standing along side the road. Yeah, that's the spirit of the bow hunting tradition. Not.
Looking back, there should never be a special season for archery or muzzy. A two week season and use the weapon of your choice.
They regulate shotguns for hunting. No more that 3 shells, no bigger than 10 Ga. shot size is regulated and must be loose in the shell. Nobody has died yet.
Ever notice how the game of professional baseball has pretty much remained the same over the years? Just because you can build a baseball bat that you could bunt a baseball 400' doesn't mean you should. I don't know why they didn't do something similar with hunting.

Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded.
