The RMEF is not in any way a political machine and just because its members do something in regards to this issue does not mean that the RMEF as a whole is in anyway involved in this issue! That being said, I HATE GAME FARMS! They lead to nothing but trouble! Have you contacted the RMEF to find out its official position on this story?

These groups focus on elk and turkeys. Generally speaking they shouldn't be opposing other forms of hunting. All too often these hunting organizations become run by a few who have an agenda while the masses don't get involved and let it go. This is unfortunate and as you say, doesn't do ALL hunters the justice they deserve. Once again, this is a divide and conquer tactic used by the antis to achieve their own goals. I certainly hope that if the Oregon Hunters Association is what you say, enough concerned hunters will get involved and right that organization. Thank you for your imput and comments.

I do know this; The Oregon Hunters Association is no friend to the common blue collar hunter! And In time there true goal of elitist hunters obtaining big game tags and limiting the seasons thru expensive license and tag fees will be appearent. They have not supported other hunters rights such as houndsmen concerning the Oregon cougar plan. As well as chuckar hunters , by supporting shortening their season.Due to Mule deer conflicts.They do continually support raising hunting tag fees. It appears OHA is only concerned with Trophy hunting , especially the large horned types. Currently the OHA consist of only 3 % of Oregon hunting license holders.Yet they are in tight with the ODFW, and I am quite suprised to see them not agree.Evidently there is more political pull on the Elk ranching position. The OHA is already loosing its members and will hopefully by reinvented thru new elected leaders. Then possibly we will see a Organization which truely represents Oregon hunters. I do not know much about the RMEF or its members, other than the fact they are BIG and Well funded. There fore they have little concerns with other hunters rights , and only focus on the elk hunting. These two groups seem very short sighted and appear to be aiding in the Anti hunting divide and conqour stratagy. As I do not know all the details of the elk ranching I cannot make a decision what should be.
