This year the Spring Convention is in Meadville, Pa.  
on March20-22, 2009.

It looks interesting -- several tours are offered.. details are at the PFSC website..

Also these are the resolutions that will be voted on for the PFSC position... which I will be getting a vote on at our sportmen's meeting this evening..

1....

An individual's resolution.. Jennifer Sager.. (member of the UBP)

"Be it resolved that the PFSC oppose HB2653 or other like-minded legislation, and oppose any proposal from the PGC which would allow crossbows for general use in all of archery season.""

HB2653 is the one legislators want to pass a BILL making crossbows a legal weapon for archery season in the entire state.


2....Rostraver Sportsmen & Conservation Assoc.. Westmoreland County...

Be it resolved that: "the PGC reduce the bag limit and shorten the length of the antlerless deer seasons in the SW region."(2B)


3....Pine Creek Sportmen's Club
Armstrong County

Be it resolved : "that the PGC do away with the 3 & 4 point antler restrictions statewide. Then have a spike 3 inches on one side restriction statewide for all deer seasons no matter the sporting arm used.".

and

"That the rifle season be 2 weeks of buck and 2 days of doe seaosn to start on the Monday after rifle season."



It should be an interesting meeting lots to discuss...

The meeting was interesting...  I am still in shock at the results of our vote....

It appears the membership has done one of those flip-flops----


1....no crossbows.... oppose
2....SW region (2B).. we abstained from voting.. no one knows the area or situation there
3.... we broke this into two parts..
a.. remove ARs... support
b.. return to old deer seasons... support

all three of the votes we took are the opposite of the last time we voted on them....  ???????????????
