| UPSA Benefit Sporting Clays Shoot Update On May 17th, we held a sporting clays shoot at the Sagola Township Sportsmans Club. 50 targets over a 10 station cource saw 45 shooters test their ability. There was strong representation from many of the clubs, as well as much needed donated prizes. Each registered shooter received a UPSA decal that can help the UPSA cause. Members can buy decals for $2.00 apiece and they will be available at the next UPSA meeting at the Sagola Township Sportsmans Club on July 26th. To read more about the shoot, click here. Some words from Dale McNamee 1. The MDNR is currently taking comments on the
Wolf Management plan. They have extended the time to allow further comment and
this has angered the antis who plan to deluge the department with their views.
Please voice you thoughts with the Director or the Wildlife Division. Addresses
can be found on the MDNR web page at www.michigan.gov/dnr.
2. George Lindquist of the Marquette Whitetails
chapter has come up with a plan that would ease pressur on our Bucks. Under his
plan a hunter(bow or deer) could apply dor a single buck license that would
allow the taking of one buck (bow could be antlerless) with 3"antlers or better
and the Combination licence under which two bucks may be killed. The first would
be for a buck with 3 points on a side and the second would requoire 4 pt. on a
side. It is not perfect but it is a stat to better buck harvest that would allow
all hunters to their preference. You may read an article on this at http://www.mingjournal.net/page/content.detail/id509695.html.
Please relay your thoughts to the Wildlife Division.
