In my opinion (ethical) goes with humane in a sense. It is my and every hunters responsibility to ensure that we do every thing with in our power to harvest game humanely.

This meaning accurate and calculated shot placements regardless of what kind of device we use.

The animal needs not suffer but to be taken (shot) in the most educated location to bring a clean and swift death.

Some say whats the point when hunting the purpose is simply to kill them and how this is done is not relevent.

To the non-ethical hunter this phrase stands, to a ethical hunter this phrase is not an option!

I have all to many time seen other hunters and even members of my hunting club take deer with no resect to the deer or thier surroundings what so ever.

Even to the point to where deer have been brought to the camp still alive (barley) and clearly suffering. This is unethical and unacceptible.[:@]

What is ethical, a clean swift kill, and kill that best suites the environment in which you are hunting. This meaning, not harvesting young bucks, fawns or out of season game.

Hunting ethics is a must, all responsible hunters need to practive ethical hunting.
