RE: Trophy Hunting?
davidmill, nobody has ever heard me belittle someone for shooting a small buck. I truly will never understand why an experienced hunter with several bowkill bucks would want to continue to harvest small bucks, BUT, I understand that it is currently legal in most places to do so. If you are happy with your harvest, then I am happy for you, even though I cannot understand your logic. I`ll even help you drag it out, and take some photos for you!
JRW....Thank You with a capitol T! I knew this was your problem all along, I just wanted to hear you say it!
You want to talk about hypocrisy? Who am I to tell you what size buck to shoot?
Who are you to tell the man that pays the taxes on his property that he should allow you to hunt it for free, when he can make a few bucks on the deal? Maybe he should just let you farm his fields for free, too!
Not that it is any of your business, but I for one probably don`t make any more than you do. I forgo many things I would like in this life so that I may be able to hunt my leased land in the midwest. I do this because it is the most important thing to me.(besides providing for my family) I hunt in your home state, in the most crowded county of them all, and there is still many farms unhunted.
You should have just started a new thread about people leasing up YOUR LAND!
The only advise I can give someone with your mindset is this....
