Default RE: Make us all look bad,why don' t you.

Some might consider things I say a little upfront, and rude. But I don' t tolerate people like the one your speaking of. To me he has a responsibility as a bow hunter to the game he pursue' s. I would' ve asked him upfront if he practices such shots. If he doesn' t then I' d told him that he has no business attempting to take such a shot. Its your wildlife, as much as its his he' s hurting. Plus its our bowhunting reputation. I have guys at work that won' t practice until only a week or too before season. Then they complain how they aren' t prepared or not shooting confidentally. I simply say well whose fault is that you had all summer to get the dust off the thing. Another co-worker thinks he' s robinhood, and doesn' t need hardly any practice. A few shots the day before it opens is plenty. I admit he has taken some nice deer, but I always told him someday your bad habits will haunt you. Guess what he wounded two deer last yr with his bow. He no longer brags about his accuracy, and he' s been practicing on & off all summer!
Sometimes it pays to be upfront, and make people thing twice!
