Default RE: Gotta vent on this one!@#$!!

Thanks for the input. I have written to the "hunter" and to the outdoors writer. I have also written a letter for the editorial page, but I doubt that they will print it, and I am still unsure about wether it would do more harm than good.
In the letter that I sent the writer, I told him of this fraud and that he should research his articles before publishing them. Also told him that if he was party to this fraud that he too should be ashamed of himself, and warned him of the damage that this stuff can do to our sport.
If the truth of this story were told, there would really be NO story. The "hunter" just basically butchered a hog. Not much different than a farmer would, only he shot it with a bow. He did not "stalk" nor did he "hunt" this animal.
So, there would really be no story. Just that he proudly posed with his kill and made it sound like a great hunt! He was just making a name for himself, and getting a free advertisement for his shop and the game farm!
