OK, I'll bite.

Take the Jordan buck, for example. Every time I read how he took his record -- with some fellow hunters making a drive and he happened to be the one in position to shoot at it from afar (and if memory serves me correctly while it was running), it seems -- yep, you guessed it -- tainted. A majestic animal like that driven time and time again from various patches of woods until one of the party was fortunate enough to connect?

Honor the animal, if you wish. Truly, it's a magnificient buck. But not much of an accomplishment as far as hunting goes.

I could write tons more, and I'll be happy to join the fracus later. Right now, I've got to go take a shower using all my scent-free soaps and deodorants and start the process that will lead to me bowhunting this afternoon... something most gun hunters don't have to deal with because their effective range negates a whitetail's nose.
