Default RE: The subjective nature of what is considered "hunting" vs "shooting"

ORIGINAL: Germ

I see you only qoute part of what I wrote
Yea......the part i was responding to. Not hard to figure out.

I see you see you accuse me of something. I ask who, andanswer with nothing[:-].
Are you letting your kids type for you?.......this is babble even for you.

Hey if you want to talk about special PM's Atlas I still have most of yours, they are gems
The point is you say you don't care what other people think......but then PM pics of your deer to total strangers in hopes of approval.


We know Atlas you never "bust" on anyone Your a model for HNI members
I never said that..........you did.


Sure Atlas, but your threads(as normal)are about everyone. So where I draw the line has a direct bearing of how I think of others.
100% wrong. Where you draw the line concerns no one but you. This forum is full of guys that choose to hunt a certain waybut not others mostly for theperceived challenge (read the thread).Now, if you take that opinion andturn it intoa negative view of others that is a whole other ball game. This thread is full of people that havevoiced their opinion about one thing or another not really being"hunting" to them.........WITHOUT bashing those who choose toexpress a different view. That's the whole point of the thread.......it's just opinion and how and where we grew up has a lot to do with that opinion. Some people don't like fences and some don't care......some think a long rifle shot is no challenge and somedo........some thinksuburban petting zoosare like shooting fish in a barrell and some don't care.........some think baiting and food plots areno fun and some would hunt no other way..........some just prefer to hunt one way and some preferanother. Thecommon denominator being the ways they avoid are "too easy" or require more shooting skill then hunting skill. Read the thread.......and the countless others that appear in the forum constantly. To say every method of hunting is viewed with the same degree of difficulty is absurd. Your beloved P+Y has clear cut definitions of what is "shooting" and "hunting".........so does everyone else.


What does it matter if I gun hunt or not?
It doesn't.



If I choose not to gun hunt, does that mean I think it is "shooting" now?
You tell me...........why don't you gun hunt?
