Default RE: Is the obsession to shoot big bucks corrupting bowhunting?

Ever notice that human beings are the only species on this planet that specifically target the biggest and healthiest animals to kill?

Ever notice that big bucks (deer) equal big money?

Ever notice that every year there are more and more farmers and land ownersthat are not allowing hunters to hunt their land but instead are leasing it out to hunting clubs, outfitters, professional guides, etc...?

Ever notice that these clubs, guides, and outfitters charge more and more money for the privelage to be able to hunt there ever larger growing heard of bucks?

Ever notice how the average redneck Joe can afford to hunt less and less every year because of the costs associated with big bucks?


IMHO the obsession to kill bigger and bigger bucks is definetly a contributing factor to the corrouption of hunting in general.
