What about micro food plots that are so popular? Ive seen a guy berate baiting, yet sets on miniture clover plots that allow him a shot at any point of entrance.
What about Decoys? Not much sport there. What about doe in heat urine? Not much sport there. Shoot, why a compound bow? if you want a challange, get you a self bow. Or better yet, make you a bow and go kill your deer with it. I do it, its much more difficult. So I guess I am allowed to berate everyone on this board.
Here is a bamboo backed Osage bow I built this year and shot most of my deer with this season.
And a few hogs
Or how about a yew recurve I built several years ago.
Both hogs and the doe were shot during a still hunt. So i guess i can be an elitest. All of you who buy your bows, hunt from a tree, or use scents or Decoy are unethical and I simply loath you.
Oh the Irony just makes me laugh.
Some of you guys really need to enjoy what you do and not get bent out of shape at what other do. But then agian, hunters wont quit hateing each other until we kill the whole sport.
Good one Burnie, you have exposed yourself, with photographic evidence as a .......(gasp!).....Pretender!![:-]
Everyone knows that a true elitist doesn't use aluminum arrows with (gasp!) METAL broad heads!! They don't live in houses constructed with man made materials either! They use wood arrows, stone broad heads and live in huts constructed out of animal skins which were sewn together with sinew and porcupine quill, or maybe stones and mud. You're busted! [8D]
Besides that, you've been out of the loop on the Bow hunting forum for too long........Just this week (earlier) we all got through this elitism crisis by deciding that to be a good hunter you must be proficient with your weapon of choice. This includes, guns (all kinds), bows (all kinds), spears, knives, catapults and bare hands. Therefore, it is a given that ALL of us are proficient with any weapon that we choose to use because we are all good hunters. We also decided that it's really all about the hunt, not the weapon.
Come join us!
Actually, that is my office made of metal. My house is a tee pee I made from moose hide I killed with a rock after chaseing it down on foot in 20 ft of snow.
Those arrows are not aluminum. Good grief, what kind of hunter do you think I am? They are carbon
. Actuall I have had obsidian heads and wooden arrows. I got away from them because of the cost. Much sharper heads, but a beotch to tune. And they are good for one animal, then they are pretty much done. There are some things I fudged as I got older, and arrows and self bowsare them.
