With the Victorian duck hunting season around the corner there is a heap of debate and letters to politicians, editors and websites. These letters are usually emotive, irrational and have little to do with reality. These letters usually come from the anti hunters/gunners.

The problem is that they have quantity. Whilst hunter’s are getting better at letter writing and getting our voices heard we are not as loud as the anti’s. All is not lost though, we have facts, rationality and intelligence on our side. Hunters & Shooters come from all walks of life and actually know what they are talking about because we live hunting and shooting. Some anti’s live it too, most do not however. Most letters from anti’s are rubbish, they are short on facts and surplus on emotion and lies.

So with that mammoth introduction I thought I would write up a few hints on how to write a great pro hunting letter. One that will be noticed and it doesn’t have to be long it just has to do the following:

Handy hints Keith :wink:
talking about fact's, the other day after reading a story from the NSW national parks assoc, "who gave themselves a name that sounds govenmental" about their members not happy about proposed National park hunting, I looked up a few things and found out the N.P.A has a member base of 5000 where as the GC has 12,000 members. Nearly two and a half times the number of the N.P.A. I'm going to use that in a letter where needed one day. Its handy to check facts. :wink:

Very cool Keith



Never let an inaccurate statement go unchallenged,

I always think of this statement from a Podcast I listen to
A lie left unchallenged becomes the truth------ Tom Gresham



Basically, don't give up, keep thinking about what you can do to make a difference


also if sending emails to Politicians

I always make a point to also CC to the opposition and here in SA Family First

I also include my contact details / mobile number

as some times they have posted replied and once I actually has the minister call me to reply that was a couple of weeks ago
