pre-writing questions
A problem that Americans face is the right to hunt and fish. Some believe hunting and fishing should be outlawed.
I think we should keep the tradition of hunting and fishing in America becasue that is how our ancestors survived and keeping the tradition is important.
Convince readers hunting and fishing is the right thing to do and there are a lot of positives that come out of it. You have to remember if it was bad we wouldn't have the right to do it.
What makes it enjoyable, Good for the enviroment, builds relationships, very affordable
I will give them ways to start enjoying hunting and fishing and what makes it fun.
It is an issue that has taken place for a long time ans some still agree with what has taken place and others still are against it.

Wood vs. Alluminum
Wood or aluminum, that has been in the baseball headlines for years now but no big decisions have been made to make the switch. There are pros and cons to both but you also have to keep in mind the safety of the players. That is the number one concern but not everyone agrees with what the leagues have done.
Aluminum bats have become very popular over the past ten years and with new technology they keep getting better and better. The newest kind of aluminum bat is composite. It’s a very high quality of aluminum and players are starting to make the switch. “I personally made the switch to composite this fall and I can tell the difference” says Taylor Augustin. There are some downfalls to composite and that is they have to be broken in before they reach their fullest pop.
There is always a debate about whether the NCAA should go to wood. Kids are getting stronger and it is just a matter of time before a pitcher gets a come backer off their off there head and left with a serious injury or even death. “It is going to take a protest or major injury due to a line drive off a medal bat” says Scott Wobshall. There have been instances where major injuries have occurred but nothing was done.
Even college players said they would not mind going to wood. It gives them experience with wood for if they make it to the professionals. Some people say college hitters have an advantage using aluminum. Mike Barry agrees saying “with their strength and ability to hit, they are able to get hits which would most likely be a broken wood bat.” The NCAA is aware of these situations but they have done very little to make the switch. Wooden bats can be dangerous also because when they break they can sometomes shatter and then the peices go flying.
