I hear ya on some of that, but frankly, the last thing I would have to worry about is a mass exodus of hunters to where I hunt. As long as choppers and planes are not allowed to drop 'em in, my 20.000+ acres is safe. In fact, the state constitution prevents it from happening.
In fact, I will give them a STANDING INVITE right to my area. Number 1, they wouldn't except, Number two, there is an 8-9 out of 10 chance they wouldn't be successful, and not because the 4 1/2-5 1/2 yr. old buck aren't there. They would have to undertake DEERHUNTING much over deer SHOOTING.
I say let the show people have at it. I don't begrudge them for what they do. I will say, to answer those who ask " wouldn't you do the same if you had a chance ": I can honestly say no, and I hope I never get to the point of " killing for profit ", regardless of the game, or prostituting my self for a product. This is not a slam to guides and such that bust their arses for clients, and to those folks, I apologize if taken that way.
