Personnally, I don't have cameras, my bow shoots around 255, I do have a rangefinder, I don't bait, I don't have box blinds, towers, food plots, decoys or any of that stuff. I have a couple scent loc suits but haven't worn one in 3 years. In short, I'm just about like most people here. I go out, find a tree, climb up and see what happens. I still have to be still, lob the arrow etc. [/blockquote]


Same here..............like I said, I don't have any problem with any of that.........but calling it "fair chase"??? Just sounds stupid and if I think it sounds stupid I can only imagine what an outsider who sees 30 guys in orange putting on non stop drives every fall must think. I just see it as a stupid label that people use for what reason I don't know.

Why can't we just call it hunting?
WEll He!! boy, you mean we've gone through 7 or 8 pages of replies over symmantics. You don't like it, don't use it. I detest the use of the word Harvest. It's killing, not harvesting. I won't use it. If someone does I tell them it's killing. So that brings us back to Fair Chase. OK, let's just calltag or something. I'll send you a dictionary and you can pick one of your own chosing.
