Mike,
I got those numbers from simply doing the math on the poll. I only used the one poll to do it. So if you break it down 53.4% were for barrs, 26.3% were against, and 20.3% didn't care. So if you group these numbers by relevance to the rule in question, 53.4% are for and 46.6% are against or unaffected by it. Pretty close to 50/50. You mentioned both polls, to use both we would need to exclude those that voted in both and average it back out the same way, and we must also remember that the poll represented 118 people with 63 being for barrs, which is far from a majority of hunters on this forum not to mention the TDHA membership, and barely represents a majority of the poll itself.
