Default RE: WHA Issues Response

Here is another thing to think about. Lets say that this joke of a organization actually makes it off the ground, what kind of ethics are going to be shown by the "hunters" or should I say "darters"? With money and prizes on the line, I wonder what kind of pot shots these "pros" would take? Considering that the darts wouldn't be as un-forgiving on a bad shot as a broadhead tipped arrow, I wonder if we will see running shots, shots through brush, or shots too far for the darters comfortable range. What kind of message is this going to teach the younger future hunterswho would watch this? It isn't possibly teaching them any skills that they would use while hunting in the true wilds of North America. It wouldn't teach them about proper shot selection or how to blood trail your deer.

The whole idea seems like a attempt for a bunch of guys with money to stroke their ego's. These "pro" hunters are more than like just friends and this organization is like a game of poker for these whackos, and the whole time they figure they can make some money off of it. These guys can't truly have a passion for the sport of hunting or they would take the money and put it to good use. How about setting up organizations to get inner-city youth involved in the outdoors, school programs that teach children the importance of hunting and its role in helping the ecosystem, how about setting up programs to help people who aren't physically capable get out and enjoy the outdoors, maybe spend some of that money on habitat restoration programs, research studies on the whitetail deer, ect.... If they truly were concerned about hunting, they would use their money to actually help promote the sport, no, these morons use their money to create a program that allows these jokers to stroke their ego, get their jollies by darting deer, get attention and on t.v., and the whole time make money off of it. It is sickening, truly sickening and I hope and pray this plan falls through and these pathetic excuses for hunters loose all the money that they have invested. They severly under-estimated the hunting community and acted as though we were little pieces of trash that couldn't stand in their way. I think the Farbman guy has a serious reality check comming.
