The safety concern for allowing bow hunters to hunt during the controlled gun hunt week(s) is significant.! Early mornings, cover of darkness, entries to ground and tree blinds without gun hunters being aware is dangerous and exacerbated by this proposed change. Even wearing orange can blend with fall vegetation after daylight --trajectory differences
An off season MNR/FN super controlled deer hunt in Short Hills Provincial Park is Archery only ? Reportedly for safety clearly not revenue neutral or efficient deer pop reduction oriented. Archery bias questionable
The muddling of Sunday Gun Hunting agreements changes with municipalities could trend towards bow hunting and removing Sunday Gun hunting .
As a hunting farmer land owner seeing the increasing reductions in land access resulting from publicly acquired lands taken over by Conservation Authorities and non-hunters I don't support the adition of bow hunting during the controlled gun hunts
