Default RE: Hunting Show is a disgrace

ORIGINAL: dino195

I watched that show (or parts of it) yesterday on the Outdoor channel.

I am kind of torn on this issue. On one hand I would never go to a game ranch and shoot pinned, exotic animals. It just doesn't sound fun or challenging to me. On the other hand I do see where an easy "hunt"? like that could be helpfull to introduce a child to hunting and getting them aclimated to making a kill without the chance of turning them off by a rigoris, demanding hunt. Especially a little girl.

I totally disagree. The rigors of the hunt ARE the hunt. If you take out the rigors of the hunt, all you are left wtih is killing. Teaching a child that hunting is all about killing is doing them a terrible disservice.
