I did a search for this on here and didn't see anything so I want the green screens opinions or facts. Im not sure on the issue, but is there a restriction or used to be one about shooting a deer that will go p&y but your sight is equipped with a pin light ( whether you used it or not) that would restrict it from being eligible for p&y. I thought I heard a few years ago that you couldn't enter one if it was shot and you were equipped with a pin light. Figured since they are so popular now adays that would be lifted. If it hasn't already been done.

Ok thanks guys... Wasn't sure, my light is removable to the point you don't know the sight has one. Doesn't this include sights that have the tapped hole for it even though it wasn't attached.
Dang Nate, I've looked that site overe before and never have seen that. I an respect old school but don't like it when old farts can't catch up with the times.
