RE: What's your batting average?
GMMAT...
Why do you think it shouldn't count for deer you "didn't shoot to begin with"? You took it home or donated it to the food bank or told the tale of that deer as a credit to your year right? Well then it counts. That's the only rule to this exercise. If you shoot at it, an arrow is required to do so. or am I wrong?
I'm not making fun of you, I'm just saying what alot of people are thinking.
I didn't take the time to articulate and accomodate for each and every facet of thought that each and every person who opened this simple(apparently not anymore by your account anyway) thread might have. I didn't think to bringthe rules of "my thread" up to a board and file for clearance before hand. It's not BS. It's just for fun. No prize is won, no winner is named, no finger is pointed, no loser is outted. Everyone gains by sharing, everyone except you.
There's no wrong message sent. Most guys here know that crap happens in the woods. It's a given that we allbe as ethical of hunters as we can. It is more telling of a person who took as many shots as neccessary to put a wonded animal down all the while knowing it would "harm their BA in this thread". You are the only one who seems so insecure withthis (obviously because your ratio by these rules don't look good to you) that you areIMO "insisting the answer to the riddle be your own".Need I remind you, you're the only one who took it wrong and has issues with it?
Cheers! Rejoice and be merry! Haveth issue no longer! I personally invite thee to join thy party.
