You had better read it again. Archery is closed during the Oct. young sportsman hunt.

No. If you read on down the page it says archery season is closed during the young sportsman hunt.

You had me worried for a second as I knew a change like that had not been discussed.

why dont they say that in the hunting dates?I could see people reading that and never reading on.why do they word things so hard to read all the time in the regs?lol

O. I actually support all seasons being closed for the youth to have their own weekends so that is good. I was reading quickly through it and just happened to notice that.

If I'm hunting that weekend I'll have a youth doing the shooting.

The Proclamation is the legal document. The Hunting Guide states that it IS NOT a legal document.

The Hunting Guide is not meant for a legal document. It is an informational summary that does not read verbatim with statutes and Commission passed regulations. All of the applicable statutes, Rules and Regulations, and Proclamations are linked on the TWRA website. That is it is printed in bold on page 8 that it is not a legal document.

 

[RAFI]

ok explain scn what is the hunting guide for if its not to tell the hunting rules

 

[Andy S.]

The H&T Guide is nothing more than a SUMMARY of Tennessee's hunting and trapping regulations. As Steve stated, it is clearly printed on page 8 in the lower left hand corner.

It doesn't say that it has anything wrong. It says it is not a legal document. Sorry that is so hard to understand.

For some reason my patience in dealing with smart azzes is wearing thin these days. I think I will take advantage of the ignore feature at this point.

the twra guide has rules wrong

If you will, please list all of the contradictions between the Guide & Proclamation. I'd like to know them and I'm sure TWRA would as well.
