Jeff, while this may be true in many cases, I think that the "telling" is borne out of frustration.
What a twisted perspective.............what is so hard to understand about "NO"???
When someone resorts to forcing their opinion on you after they "asked" you and heard "NO"...........it is clear they weren't really "asking" in the first place
We all know that for a buck to reach trophy status it must be allowed to age. For those that want to hunt a trophy buck, but don't have the means to own land or access exclusive private property or leases, they have to try to work with other hunters.
Or just go find the ones that are out there and get killed EVERY year. Do you REALLY need to kill a big buck EVERY year to feel like hunting is "good" or the way it should be???..........man, the ADHD, Drive-Thru, instant gratification mindset of some people makes me wonder where we are headed.
When their initial suggestion is met with, "I'll shoot what I want." they have to turn to trying to convince the others to see things their way. When this is met with resistance it causes preaching and animosity.
How about just accepting the fact that you are speaking to another adult who is fully capable of making up his own mind and forming his own opinions.............if I tell you "NO".......I mean "NO"..........that is NOT an invitation for you to try and convince me of anything or educate me as to why I am wrong..........It just means "NO". The more you push the subject the worse it gets.
I feel like I am talking to children or freakin' Jehovah's witnesses here.............you guys are about 1/2 a step above a used car salesman on the food chain.
Start listening.
It's easy not to preach when you're not the trophy hunter, all you have to do is pull a trigger.
Poor you
