Both times I've said I don't agree with the spear ban. Heck I've tossed the idea around as a moose hunt for the last couple years. And I'm not an ABA member.

The people who are being selfish are:
In this case, the boneheads currently at the top of the ABA. Too many bow hunters?? Yeah that about does it for credibility.

Previously:
the people who can't be bothered to learn to shoot a bow and demanded crossbow privileges (or the manufactures that sponsored said activity)
The people who wanted to ban bow hunting. And still do.
Whoever decided bow hunters should only get 15% of the harvest.

So we have a great history of sitting around watching outfitters take over while we snarl at each other over the scraps.

To sum it up: ABA-brain fart but not the root of all evil
