CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

[robby denning]

I don't live in CO and will likely never hunt mountain lion but, I had to donate some money to this cause when I learned of it. The overreach and plotting by animal "rights" activists and, really unfortunately, by some CO politicians is very, very disturbing. This will need to be fought every year and I'm sure new tactics will be used to try and push it through. This win proves we as hunters can ban together and have a real voice. It's not over.

thanks for donating! It all helped win this

Truly, to everyone who had anything to do with this battle, thank you, thank you very much!!
Now enjoy the win, but be ready for the next one.

Thank you to everyone who helped us beat this back in Colorado. We dodged a bullet. Now lets go on the offensive.

Lot of hard work went into this. Kuddos to everyone for all of their hard work.

Glad it was defeated. How we need to get something on the ballot that eliminates the public from Voting on things like that

I think AZ had one… looks like it failed, but it basically said it required consensus from all counties to pass things not just majority rule from the population zones

Pretty sure Lorenzo donated a not-insignificant amount to CRWM, matching a donation from the company with his own $$ or something like that. Trail and Brady went in-person to the rally in Denver...feel like they went above and beyond. Respect.

I am super stoked on this for people of Colorado. I am not a Colorado resident and I have never hunted there and I donated. It's encouraging to see that these things can be defeated.

I am calling it right now that we will see this in Washington or Oregon next.

We will need your help then.

Yeah you can have an opinion on the "gohunt effect" or whatever. But those guys really earned my respect and have a customer for life from me.

They have even commented on some of the issues we have going on in Washington.

Yep, I remember this post from earlier this year about WA cougar season setting and the petition that anti's put forth. They also have the membership deal with HOWL.

Seems like they're being more intentional about spreading info and resources for hunting issues across all western states on multiple platforms.

Been mulling over options for a ball head for coyote hunting, picked up a k-10x from them on the promo code.

Awesome news! Congrats to all involved in fighting this.

VICTORY!!!!!!!!

 

[CoMulies]

Looks like Wyoming is getting my money on that one.

Yup. I’d rather spend the 2 hours and gas money to drive up there for anything I need rather than give them another cent of my money here.

Likewise. Lorenzo and the guys are great down-to-earth dudes who are passionate about these issues and willing to put their money where their mouthes are!

We will be there, got your back. I think this was a big moment for the hunting community. Got to talk with the GoHunt guys at the Capitol after the “No to 127” rally, earned my respect. They put in a lot on this effort.

I’m not in love with all their stuff they put out ( the social media stuff) but I will 100% buy stuff from them after this, very impressed with how they handled it. Glad meatbeater highlighted it a bunch too. Credit earned where credit due
