RE: Bad trend in Deer Hunting
The blinds are a great way to introduce the little hunters to the outdoors,I have an 8 year old nephew that got his first deer this year out of 1 with a 45 caliber muzzle loader and I intend on taking my daughter in one next season if she can pass my shooting standards.She will be 8 before deer season.They will stay much more interested if they aren't freezing and can actually move a little,this is a great way to learn.
As for me I also think it is a boring way to hunt,I go out hunting to see the outdoors and not the inside of a blind.
Extreme cold weather and the sick are 2 other really good reasons for using them.
My stepdad has gone almost exclusively to hunting out of these things but he smokes a pipe and refuses to stop,even when hunting,they help him get deer every year.
I don't care what way one chooses to hunt and can't understand why you do.If you don't like that kind of hunting,then hit 1 of those buttons on the remote and it you won't have to see it.
