Parallel subject (loosely) but I see where P & Y will now allow animals harvested with arrows using lighted nocks to be eligible for the books. It is also a retroactive rule meaning previously harvested animals prior to the effective date (Aug 1, 2014), will now be allowed entry as well. Not sure that P&Y has enough clout at the regulatory level, but they surely have influence that may bolster changes in the lighted nock regs of states banning them to date.
