Thank you Paul , for your support..
I know I’m on the right path somewhere on my decision seeing your agreement
I had wanted to touch base with you at the NCTA convention but never got the chance.

guys how about, get active in your state group, and become a director, to the nta, and be a director that does something, not just sit there and do nothing, ask questions, look into stuff, ask why ? and don't settle for a simple answer? that's what we need people who are willing to do their job as director, we have some good ones and we need more to help them out,

Yea that worked out great for me and REALLY worked out great for my replacement, Toby aka old relic.

Roy, i don't think you understand what they did to the bylaws, that board doesn't have a say in much of anything but even if they still had the old bylaws it's pretty much just a bunch of bobbing heads bored to death cause NONE of us like meetings! Plus you got to be a member to be a director.

Great idea Roy. It beats constant whining on the internet.

Well, except for the fact that the three of us who are now either permanently or temporarily banned from the NTA tried to do just that.

X2...great post Roy. Even after what you went through your positive and looking forward attitude is inspiring. Thank you for caring about trapping like you do.

What FTA said in 1968 i belive it was. Got Sportsmans Alliance also. Just seems if you put a bunch of trappers together running anything it always ends up in the same place! Isn't like many in the past got fed up got involved and worked to change things in the NTA and did make positive changes along the way yet it still for whatever reason ends right back up in the same spot it was 40 years ago!

Lol, haha.....

THE NTA has been the back bone of all the anti fur

legislation in the past, the FTA is a great organization, but

in the past they have not lived up to the up front money spent

help for our needs in the political field

So, because of this up roar , alot of money will be lost.

I am unsure what to think myself, what to do and what to think ?

I do know that Angela Billings has filed 3 previous grivioences

With the NTA and each went nowhere

Not picking on her at all but just wonder, has all the

money each and everyone of us been spent in vain ?

Someone mentioned a new organization up above, it's a

Proven fact the FTA can't handle the job, and Dobbins refuses

He is the best bet Trapping has for a future if the NTA is left to

Crap or get off the pot Dobbins

You obviously aren't up to date on the doings by the FTA. They can and do the job better these days. Get up with the folks involved in the NM action. Dave Hastings and the FTA were front and center immediately. I talked with Travis C about this very subject. He had nothing but praise for how the FTA jumped right in.

Buzz how many states has NTA saved from losing or severely getting their trapping rights restricted in the last 25 years? How many states who lost their rights was NTA able to get them back in that time period or 30 years even? So how is it money lost?

No Sir, I am not up to date at all, that I give you. I was once a standing member

of the FTA and even on a few occasions contributed to their magazine

Problem lys with the lack of communication, why do I have to log on

to Trapperman .com to find out the problems ?

I am a lifetime member of the NTA and the NCTA, beings

I would like to be more informed of any and all situations.

I am unable to travel much anymore so I don't get to conventions,

That being said, why am I not up to date ?
