Badatta2d - Awe, maybe you're right. Heck, who cares what hunting REALLY is as long as its legal, right ? Shooting a caged animal, shooting one that shares 400 acres with 10 other species of animals, half of them exotic and all corn fed, yeah, thats the example of hunting I want to pass to my kids and shown on ESPN2 and the Outdoor Life channels.


PETA loves canned hunts, the Media like to show them on TV as hunting. I accept a lot of different kinds of hunting, baiting, dogs, crossbows, spears you name it - but calling a canned killing a hunt is over the line for me.

markw posted this on a public forum for all to see - how do ya'll know he isn't PETA ? I emailed him and the outfitter and none will tell me how many acres, how many species are resident etc. Did the bull have an ear tag too ? Is this REALLY hunting ? I think those are valid questions, and taking the guys satisfaction away from the kill might be justified in that light. Hey, I call it like I see it and back it up with the reasons why.


stickerpt - I never said it was wrong, I said it wasn't hunting IF the place is what I think it is. You said yourself " You ought to try an outfit hunt out West though. It wont be
as easy but the harder you work for something the better you
feel about it" and thats exactly right. I just go farther and call it what it is, a canned hunt with a gauranteed kill and that folks aint huinting.
