I have followed this thread since it has started and I think some of you guys have responded like such a$$holes and I'm not going to mention names, as most who have responded here are veterans at hunting, but for crying out loud, didn't we all begin at some point?? Don't you know the thrill of turning a child on catching perch or brim and seeing and experiencing the excitement that they experience, or have you lost the sight to see through their eyes. As someone said earlier, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Even though I have reservations about these types of hunts, who the HELL am I to condemn it. I think it was great to see it through Marks eyes and its a road to the great outdoors. It may not be your style or even mine, but I would not of confronted it like that, didn't you start off by catching small fish or even shoot a small deer and think that it was a trophy, and then have some a$$hole pop your bubble such as you and deney the individual of a good hunt in his mind. My method of hunting is different than yours and even though I may agree with your methods of hunting as I do, the same, who the hell do you think you are to cast judgement and belittle him on the excitement that a newbie is willing to share with his experience. I too am surprised at some of the responses and if I was Mark I would of been in your face, by the way my name is Bobby and I just had to respond.
