RE: Good WHA article
 

Thanks for the message.

Well your obviously very old and out of touch with this generation. perhaps you have negatively influenced the general public and have lacked in your efforts for youth recruitment in hunting.

i didnt know the Hunting Net forum represented the whole hunting community...

please, lets keep generalizations out of this..

Yours

You must have somehow missed the signature underneith all my posts that lets everyone know that I'm a teenager. I'm only 18, and I'm very in touch with my generation, thanks.

I never said that HuntingNet.com represented the entire hunting community. What I did say was that I'm fairly certain that the majority of those who are registered members here (at HuntingNet.com) feel the same way I do about the WHA.

If you still fail to realize this, I welcome you to run a quick search for previous threads regarding the WHA. You'll find that a lot has already been discussed, and, well, the majority really do in fact feel the same way I do.

I haven't generalized one bit. As I said in one of my previous posts, I'm simply stating my opinions. Granted, I did throw the statement out therthat I'm sure that quite a few others here at HuntingNet.comfeel the same way, but I'm entitled. I've been involved in the majority of the previous discussions so I have quite a bit to base those statements on.

Again, I welcome you to do a quick search and educate yourself as to the feelings of your fellow members. If you still feel that I'm "generalizing" after you've done that, feel free to post yet another reply and I'll be sure to repeat myself once again.

I welcome you to actually visit the WHA website and see they ARE NOT tranquilizing deer...they explicitly state they are Harvesting deer now...

you are NOT up to date... as your previous threads are now irrelevant...

Yours..

RE: Good WHA article
 

Believe me, I know what the WHA is up to now. There was a thread earlier today letting everyone know that the tranquelizing portion of the contest has been replaced.

Does that make what they're doing any more respectable? No. Slightly less dispicable? Possibly.

My problem is with "hunters" competing for cash prizes. "Shoot the biggest deer for big dollars." It isn't right and it amazes me that people actually support it.

RE: Good WHA article
 

thanks. I can tell you are well known here on HNI

Lets examine this further....

You said, "Our sport isn't about taking home cash prizes for tranqulizing deer."

Well that is just completely false..if you have been informed..as you freely admit...they are NOT traquilizing deer for cash prizes

please dont contridict yourself...

But..i do respect your opinion about prize money.. but then again...why dont you say "hey, i think ALL pro athletes are SeLL outs because they get paid"

RE: Good WHA article
 

Our sport is a lot different than other sports.

We kill animals. We kill living, breathing, resproducing creatures. We take the lives of living things.

In baseball theplayersget paid to play well, not to kill well.

In football theplayersget paid to play well, not take the lives of animals.

In soccer the playersget paid to play well, not to kill an animal worth mounting on the wall.

If you can't see just how different our sport is from all the others out there, maybe you need to reconsider what it is thatyou're doing in the woods each fall.

I respect each and every animal I kill, and I feel that the WHA and those participating in the hunts are degradingour sportby parading it around like its just another reality TV show.

RE: Good WHA article
 

wow-

I think you digging your own grave...

i wonder if a serial murderer says " I respect each and every person I kill"

they are living, breathing and reproducing creatures...

RE: Good WHA article
 

How exactly...?

You know what, I'm done arguing about it. You can continue to support the WHA if you like, but you'll be a part of a small group that do.

RE: Good WHA article
 

I respect you conceding.

Also- I would appreacite not getting flamed by one of your HNI cohorts, I respect all original opinions and would do not respect bandwagoning.

Wash-
The line is very hard to draw. Where do you draw the line? I dont think there is a definite/concrete answer. I think we should all get the facts STRAIGHT and stop hammering the irrevelvant or the outdated.

thats my advice

RE: Good WHA article
 

okay, so your saying that because he puts down the animal he kills as quickly as possible, that he is not respecting it??? are you relating our way of life to murder? do you hunt at all? ???
