Oppose this GPS rule
 

Hunting with dogs is a sport my family has enjoyed for many years.  Long before GPS collars were ever a thing.  I am 52 years old and still enjoy a good dog hunt.  My sons and lots of family and friends still think of this as a way of life.  Not everyone is able to operate or afford the technology of GPS tracking and this should not be made mandatory.  I strongly oppose.  Just because you don’t know anything about or don’t enjoy it doesn’t mean others don’t and we do love our dogs.
