I oppose
 

I highly oppose this bill. With the technology we as dog hunters have today we have the capability to handle our hounds better. With this technology we can prevent our hounds from going onto unwanted property better. If a hounds does get on unwanted property. Handle the situation correctly go to the landowner seek permission to retrieve your hound be respectful. Sometimes it goes a long way. With this being said hopefully the Game Commission will make a decision that could help both sides. There is no decision that is going to be agreed upon from both sides. We as hound hunters are going to have to try harder to help this situation. We could be our worst emeny.
