True, it isn't really fair to the animal you're killing but then again it's not supposed to be. You're the predator, you're supposed to have the upper hand. I don't think it's fair for a cheetah to be able to run faster than a thompson gazelle and have razor sharp claws and teeth, but it's the predator, it's supposed to be able to kill the prey.Fangface74 post=18.68299.623954 said:'Hunting', it's such a cool word isn't it, I suppose 'Using a High Powered Killing Device Against A Creature That Has No Idea What Is Happening' is too long.
Fair enough to genuine pest control and food consumption.
If you want to hunt, strip down bollock naked and launch yourself bare handed at a deer/bear/wolf, if you kill it, far as I'm concerned you fucking earnt it.
good thing i don't smoke. ^_^ (but T_T about that guy though)the monopoly guy post=18.68299.625259 said:@steinfaust You can use a ghillie suit when bowhunting, but be careful, some guy wearing one lit a ciggarette and it started on fire...he died.
The one good shot in camp should never shoot animals for others' tags - that's illegal. Besides, it's about the HUNTING, not the KILLING. Damned few people today will go hungry if they don't kill something.BallPtPenTheif post=18.68299.628769 said:on paper, i would love hunting
but then i moved to Missouri and talked to some people about it. apparently it's hours of camping (i hate camping) and hiking (i hate hiking) just so that the one good shot in the group can kill everything in sight even having to use your tags.
THEN, once the animal is dead it's like trying to evacuate the corpse of a morbidly obese man from a remote jumgle camp.
After you get it home then you get to know what a Mafiat Cleaner feels like as you try to eviscerate, disembowl and "CLEAN" the deceased creature without staining your carpet and/or kitchen floor. Oh, prepare to get complaints from the non-hunting family members because your home (if you cleaned it there) will smell like a dead hobo for a week.
