thats def. comiong from someoone who is pretty ignorant themselves there bowman. and canned heat, you said exclusivley. thats pretty vague. i think the guys, myself included who arent afriad of popin a deer in the melon are saying if thats the shot they have, they take it. i do. but if i have a decent shoulder shot ide rather have it. up here in maine buddy you boys would go home empty handed w/ high and mighty opinions like that. you must be some of those polo shirt hunters w/ heated blinds and feeders and food plots i bet! i voted for #4 by the way
By
exclusively, if you know what that means:
as in the only shots they'll take. How that's vague, I don't know. I know of yahoos who think it's really neat to see what kind of carnage they can cause to the noggin of a whitetail....like they're in it for the killing and the graphic outcomeof it all more than they are for the meat, the hunt, or the health of the herd. Trust me, I still shoot competitively on occasion and could most times take out whatever, whenever within a given known range. Why would I risk a lost and wounded animal to a marginal shot like that when it's almost always uncalled for? Telling us you can dial in an easier, safer, andbetter shot on 72 square inches of deer head versus some 600+ square inches of vital region is a joke. So by your comment of:
"4 deer per square mile...better make it count", you'll sit all morning for your one deer a day deer and when he swings by, all you're thinking about is a brain shot...because you might not see another deer? And when you do pull the trigger, is the deer even still at that point? Now I know where all the wounded jawless deer are coming from.
And for the record, I deer camp in Northern WI in an outside open-air tent with 7 other people. We butcher our own deer, crap in the woods, and take turns doing the chores that are necessary to keep the place from going to hell. We take showers from cooled boiling water before it freezes, and have on occasion booted wolves, badgers, and bears from our site. No 4 wheelers, no tv's, no heat, no nothing.
Learn to spell too, before you start piping up on how ignorant
other people are....
