RE: The way the indians did it - Bowhunting
I definitely agree Doublecreek. There are wanna-bees in all walks of life.
I know compounders whose trucks are covered in "size matters" and "bowtech" stickers. They've got new bows, new stands, a $40,000 ride,but they couldn't hunt their way out of a wet paper bag. I stereotype them just the same. I've hunted long enough to know the percentages.
The fact of the matter is: Most hunters, no matter what they're using - are totally inept. Hunter success rates are abyssmally low, no matter what the weapon. My beef with the trad guys is that they pretend to be handicapping themselves, and use that as an excuse for their lack of productivity. And I guess I'll never understand the whole "wanting to be an indian" thing.
BobCo - Since we're being honest here, I really couldn't care less what you think about my ethics.I watched Tred Barta miss 19 mulies the other night - some moving, some standing, some out past 40 yards... Here's a quarter. CallTred. Maybe he cares.
