It is good that an easy connection is made online between hunters and the airlines.

Sent my own version to all three carriers the week Delta turned, but happily did so again. All should sign.

As noted above, done, but I do wonder why SCI did not do an email to members specifically asking them to send the letters? Or maybe they did and I do not recall getting it.

Done as well, but I'm with you. The only reason I knew about this was that I saw this thread on AR. Look on the bright side - we're making progress. An effort to mobilize the troops and fight the good fight, and even arm the troops - we just forgot to notify the troops ....

Already I was beginning to fall into the African way of thinking: That if
you properly respect what you are after, and shoot it cleanly and on
the animal's terrain, if you imprison in your mind all the wonder of the
day from sky to smell to breeze to flowers—then you have not merely
killed an animal. You have lent immortality to a beast you have killed
because you loved him and wanted him forever so that you could always
recapture the day - Robert Ruark

I'm sorry, WTF?

All I want to know is why, as a SCI member, did I have to learn about this on the AR Forum?

Jerry,

Thanks for the comment and a big thanks to Larry for posting this on AR. There is a distribution strategy in place based on volume, response rate, and the various tools SCI has in its toolbox.

These are very nicely written letters that can be easily modified for your business and sent on your letterhead. I hope everyone who reads the thread will take a moment to send letters and let their voice be heard.

Thanks! I'm baffled by the "distribution strategy". Let's see - who are the members, great - send them a f*&^ing e-mail. Done. Now let's focus on more strategic decisions ....

I would posit that individually written letters (even if they say something similar) have much more impact than a fill-in-the-blank-with your-name form letter. Just think about how annoyed we get when we get them back from our representatives; we know they aren't sincere. In just a few minutes with less than a dollar's work of stamps you could have stacks of letters arriving for these people.

And frankly, if those letters left out the part about being a member of SCI it would be best. Otherwise the the genesis of the letters rests on SCI, not with the individuals themselves, where it should be.

Thanks for the names and addresses. I'll send my letters in the next day or so.

Done! Sent to all three and I included a copy of the one page Royal Kafue - Kiandu Commnity success article outlining the continued growth in game and Lion population density benefiting the community and game.
