It's obvious that you have no idea about hunting traditions and accepted practices that you personally aren't acquainted with. OK, what do you think of deer feeders? Bear Baiting? Trapping? Using dogs for hogs or 'coons? Fox hunting with dogs? Have you ever heard of hunting pigs with dogs but without guns (I'll give you a hint: it involves the dogs holding the pig's ears and the hunter using a knife on the pigs throat - and it's the "only" way pigs are hunted in some places).

I don't do any of these things because they don't ring my chime (yes, I admit it, I PERSONALLY don't like the style of that sort of hunting), but they are well accepted and traditional means of hunting and where legal, are just fine - for those that chose to do it.

Suggesting it's on the same level as burning the woods to flush an animal is pretty rich and closed minded imho. It's like a fly fisherman saying a bait fisherman might as well throw dynamite in the lake.
