Rules can change August 2013 or 2014?|Discussion Items|Forum|Bow Hunters of Alabama

Any proposed amendments to this Constitution and/or by-laws must be submitted in writing by a General Board member at any Board Meeting. The proposal will be discussed and then tabled. It will be raised at the BHA State Convention and voted upon at that meeting. Amendments will be passed by a 2/3-majority vote of General Board members in good standing at that meeting.

The tournament rules can be repealed by submitting it in writing by a board member. It could be discussed tabled until the Sate Convention.At the State Convention it could be repealed and it is gone. The whole clause could be repealed and reinstated with a new that allowed whatever the majority wanted.It is that simple . The votes just have to be there to have it done.

You did not get my point. It might take you two years to change but you can not put in a three year lock. What if the next group put a fifty year lock? Any by law can be changed with the proper channel.

The post I put in came straight out of the bylaws. The three year lock was put in by changing a Bylaw. You just have to go through the same procedure that it was change in the first changing of a bylaw. The thing is does everyone understand the procedures and are there enough votes to change the bylaw that we have in place now. If you have enough people that want it changed; it can be changed with the procedure I posted before. I do not believe there is another regular meeting before the state convention. If there were another meeting ; It could be discussed tabled and with enough votes the bylaw could be changed this year.

I truely belive if we can get some of these rules changed that we have talked about here it would increase our membership interest. We are a bow hunting organazation and i think some of ours rules are excluding what has become standard bow hunting equiment. And im talking about the faster bows here !
