RE: TV "Unethical" shots
I'm one of the LAST people to preach to anyone. Everyone's beliefs (or non) is their business....and I don't want to go there. That was NOT my intention, AT ALL.
Now...the people I'm speaking of were NOT professional hunters that were being filmed. They were being filmed, yes, but professionals......no. 1 lady was on her first archery hunt.....and she was using a compound bow for the first time (draw-loc??). I wouldn't DARE speak condescendingly of anything Michael Waddell/Primos guys/etc/etc did in the field. I think they know this deal better than I, and I trust their judgement.
Just last week....on Dream Season....I watched a guy take a VERY MUCH quartering-to shot at a big buck. As soon as he took it....I said it was unethical. That's what the Drury brothers told him in NO uncertain terms. THAT...was a good lesson to everyone.
I am NO preacher....let me reiterate.....lol. You OBVIOUSLY don't know me....lol.
Have a good one, guys...I DID NOT mean to start anything with the original post.
