Suffering is a part of the sport. But so is the hunter's responsibility to minimize it.
Its also the hunter responsibility to follow the law. Right?
It's also why no hunter just stands there looking at a poorly shot deer when it's possible to end its pain.
In my book a poorly shot deer is shooting it at night, hence breaking the law=poaching. If one is such a hunter end its suffering legally or accept the fact!
If you read DD post he shot at "eyes looking back at his light" now thats responsible?? Give me a break!
Like I said I hate to see ANY animal suffer. Where I come from, where I hunt and how my Father taught me thats called poaching..You can call it what you want to ease your own mind, just so you can sleep at night!
Thats the truth, poaching is poaching no matter how you word it!
