What a better spokesperson for our state than our fearless leader? Some DNR PSA's with Granholm leading the way. Or maybe someone from Hollywood like you said, Tim Allen does the Travel Michigan PSA campaigns for our state. That would be a great idea. Now how do we let them know about it?

That is probably the only way we could raise enough money to do something nationwide and on a grand scale. Network TV is very expensive, but it would also go a long way in countering the anti's message. Maybe we need an umbrella organization to help band all of the individual hunting groups together.

I think, and have said before, that we could learn a lot from PETA about marketing and influencing public opinion. I don't, by any means, advocate all the tactics they use, but they do a lot of things right from a marketing perspective. You raise a good point Arthur, and it is a big part of the questions I will pose to these organizations when I get time to e-mail them. PSAs are a great idea.
