I understand and respect this statement. I also understand the follow on statements that took place. That said, a record book of any kind is just a record book. It serves as a reference. Granted, there are many, many entries in B&C from which the hunt cost a LOT of money. Hunts that I will never be able to do. And that's ok. But, the hunts are all documented fair chase. And, there are many entries that come from hunts that were not expensive. Whitetail deer, antelope, black tail deer, black bears, caribou. There are entries from hunters that applied and accumulated preference points for years before they did their diy hunts.

I think this record book is a great idea. It just has to about the hunt, the method, and the animal and not the person.
