I posted a message about how the SFW doesn't allow the members to vote on issues, so therefore how do they say that they support things, For example, there was the issue of shutting down limited entry units to allow them to come back to the respectful deer herds that they should have. The SFW opposed this and didn't agree with it, talking with members of the SFW they say that they were disappointed because they didn't get to vote on this issue, nor do they vote on any issue. So why be a member of the group if your opinion or voice is never herd, sounds like somebody is making a bunch of money as the head of the group and doesn't care what the members think. I would think that for certain issues the members should have a pole on, but Brian here in his message states that it would cost to much to pole the members, how would it cost to much? 10,000 members at $25 a year is $250,000.00, 10,000 envelopes and stamps maybe $.50 which is $5,000.00, that would leave $245,000.00 to pay the board for there great efforts. Here below is waht Brain had to say. Maybe I am just sour because of the way the deer managment is going in Utah, but I disagree that members don't get to vote on issues that effect them. I won't even go into the new elk managment plan that the SFW supported which is a bunch of Crap, anyway I would like to know why people join the SFW if they don't get to be herd as members.
Yes, I am bitter about managment.
Brians comment-
If SFW polled its members for every issue, it would cost more than they could possibly raise. They'd go broke very fast. It costs money to do most polls.
Second of all, there would still be people complaining, because not everyone would want things the same. In fact, it's hard to find 2 people who agree on how things should work, let alone 10,000.
If you have suggestions or concerns as a member, you can always voice them to the local chapter chair person, who is usually an SFW board member. They will then voice the concerns of the folks in their chapter to the entire SFW board.
