The comment period is now open and we want members and friends of the UBNJ to flood the DEP with comments in support of the regulation changes. Without your support, the antis will have another victory and we may not have this chance again for another generation. Please share this email with your family and friends!
You may supply your comments online or in writing. Online submissions take less than 60 seconds, so visit here to submit your comments and be heard. http://www.nj.gov/dep/rules/comments/

Let’s be heard and make a difference. John Erndl President, United Bowhunters of New Jersey
Yes I sent a message in supporting early season bow hunts even though I live In Central Jersey and cannot hunt them here
Mark already saw your post on NJ Hunter site - I don't know why this NJ part of bowsite lost it's luster, probably because of our local site... I rarely come here anymore, just the main site quite often...
Where's the local site? I'd Lyle to visit. This is the only one I know of
I heard from a friend that it's a done deal.A week of archery with a little fuzzy loader in the middle.My buddy used to sit on the F&G council.He gets the inside info.
It seems you have been heard! I might have to cross the Delaware and join you boys this year! ;-)
