Oppose this bill
 

I oppose this proposal. You seek to impose a heavy financial burden on the new hound hunter, all the while claiming to support hunting. GPS is often unreliable in more rural areas. This regulation is a ploy to use against the deer and bear hunters to add one more hurdle to hunting with dogs. This is one more example of anti-hunting bias of DWR and its Board.
