Dear Marcia, Thanks for the additional info on bow hunting - it really does make a difference. The one person who testified in favor of the bill with regard to bow hunting (he owns a sporting goods store) never mentioned any of this info! It's really impressive. I was wondering if there is any law or regulation in Maryland prohibiting hunting under the influence. Does anyone happen to know?
