Default RE: examples of ELITISM

i just started reading this board in the past week and i have to say i definately see elitism and ignorance from many of the posters here regarding the choice of hunting methods. the majority of you are using hightech bows, scentlok, etc. and have decided the line distinguishing a "true hunter" is somewhere between a bowhunter and a gunhunter while it could easily be shifted to only those using their bare hands and a pointed rock.

another problem with this board is that many of you simply stereotype gun hunters as someone who doesnt scout or prepare for the hunt and is generally without skill. one post i just read said gun hunters are those people standing out in a corn field in blue jeans firing away at any deer they see.

finally, this board promotes the same negative attitude against gun hunters that is used by anti-hunters.
