I am not a big fan of Ted's either. Like many others here I often wonder if he does more harm than good. I applaud his effort however, I wonder if it is having the desired effect. For example, my wife, was never around hunting until we met 4 years ago. In that time she has learned to watch and enjoy some hunting shows. She loves Realtree Roadtrips and watches it whether I am home or not. On the other hand she thinks Ted is a complete idiot. If she is coming away with that kind of attitude towards Ted and she knows what the hunting lifestyle is all about I can only imagine what the non-hunting public thinks of him.

WhackABuck, I think you need to go back and re-read the posts. You seem to be the one coming off angry and upset. It's great that you are such a big Nuge fan. However, some of us are not. Some people here think that since we are hunters that we are suppose to love everything about hunting, well I disagree. If someone that is a hunters sees something that they think is hurting rather than helping hunters then they have a right to speak up about it. You said most people here wouldn't stand up and fight for hunting but that is exactly what many here feel that they are doing. The difference is that you don't like what is being said. That is a pretty weak generalization anyway. To say that people won't stand up and fight for the hunting rights because they don't like Ted Nugent........lmao......you have got to be kidding me. You can't force people to like hunting. All you can do is respresent hunting well and hope they respect you as an idividual and hope that they convey that to the rest of the hunting community. Many here feel that Ted maybe lacking in that respect. You might apply this thread to your approach. You think that by arguing and bickering and insulting people that you are going to make us like Ted Nugent more. But you are wrong. It has quite the contrary effect. I am far more swayed by the people that posted in a calm, intelligent, rational manner than I am by your posts. Most anti or non-hunters will more like be swayed in this same manner than they would by beligerent out burst. You don't see the Fire Dept. fighting a building fire with fire. You see them fighting it with water. If you start a verbal sparring match with an anti all you made was an enemy and you furthered there resolve towards hating hunters. If you calmly and intelligently try to inform them, then they may not leave agreeing with you but they may leave respecting you!
