Cyber-Hunters - Need Info on new members

[grouseguy]

We have had four new paid members that have not provided their info to our Sgt at Arms so that they can be set up as voting members. Do any of you know these guys:

Larry D. Addington*
Alex Lea*
Kenneth Curtis*

*These three guys paid Xtreme (Rick Hahn) directly at (I believe) a meeting at the Bluegrass Sportsmans League earlier this month. It is my understanding that some of these guys lurk around here, but are not regular posters.

Also;

Ralph E. Martin, California, KY

This check came directly to me with no username included.

If any of you guys know the username of any of these individuals, their email address or phone number, please post it here or email the Sgt at Arms, Big58cal at Big58cal@earthlink.net or me at mrogers@fnbgrayson.com with any private info.

We need to get these guys eligible to vote on the "members only" forums.

Thanks for your help.

I am Ralph Martin. My username was on the bottom of the check, I thought. Sorry if I didn't put it there after all. My username as logged on right now is Ralph. If you get this message I guess that is it. I have computer password overload right now.

Welcome Ralph. How did you stumble across this bunch?

[Ralph]

I am President of the KY Bowhunters Assoc. I monitor anything I can find, about bowhunting in KY. Takes a lot of time so I mostly "lurk", as some people call it. I find it to be a very distasteful description but it is generic now so I'll live with it. Because of my intense interest in bowhunting I have also had to deal with KDFWR as KBA President, V.P. & also a local club President with 4-Season Bowhunters. It is not a very pleasant experience & I'll take any help I can get. Bowhunters have been under attack by some members of the Wildlife Commission for too long. This also extends to certain people in KDFWR. If CyberHunters can help me find & remove or transfer these people to lessen their power & influence then I will try it. Either that, or they can make an attempt to listen to us. The most recent example is the crossbow issue. I cannot find any organized support for the users, yet they have more voice & receive more attention from the Commissioners each meeting. How come? A majority of the The Wildlife Commissioners consider Bowhunters second-class & second-rate in most of their deliberations. Anyone who thinks otherwise is kidding themselves. You only have to attend a meeting & listen to their comments or talk to them to see that. Most of it comes from the fact that most(NOT ALL) of them know absolutely nothing about bowhunting & do not appreciate the experience. Sorry, I have gone on far too long. Just to close, I can't do anything if I can't get any information. I can't attend their darn meetings. I have a job.

Ralph- welcome aboard. I hope this thing works out like you desire.

Welcome aboard indeed Ralph! We will do our best to put out as much info and gain as much info about all of the things that involve Ky. sportsmen. Don't feel lonely, most of us have jobs to.
