The statement acknowledging that hunters are the primary conservationists with a cogent explanation of how the money from tags and the Pittman-Robertson tax is used is amazing to see. Not to mention the overall treatment of hunting as a worthy endeavor and hunters as responsible people.

Good article, no telling how much Jason paid for it but in the end win for hunters and kuiu.

His new marketing firm is second to none.


Donate to TX Youth hunting program.... better to donate then to waste it in taxes

Good article. The comments were comical. I always enjoy how people who live in modern society don't think about how our species 'footprint' is more responsible for loss of species diversity rather than the relatively few animals killed by legal hunters. Most likely if it weren't for the money spent on hunting many of our last wild outdoor spaces would be lost and not given a 2nd thought.

Can one pay to have an article printed in the NYT?
