RE: Elitist attitude
You can't get away from all the nonsense. Hell, you go into Walmart and look at the slug guns and you got some kid that is barely old enough to vote lecturing you that real hunters don't use guns. It reaches the point where hanging around people during deer season is like being around a bunch of bitchy old women.
And I do own my own land, but since deer hunting is not particularly high on my list of hunting to begin with, I just tend to let other folks hunt it nowdays.
