Default Why Youtube isn't always a good thing (Head Shot)

Have any of you seen the video of the idiot who head shot a deer with his bow and the guys spend about a minute laughing about it while the deer rolls around?[:@]

This is the sort of junk that gives archery hunters and hunters in general a bad name.

I've flagged it as inappropriate and think that anyone who has seen it should too. It paints archers as hillbillies and inhumane hunters and should be removed.

Here's a link for you all to decide yourself.

HNIJustin,

I was hesitant to put the video link on here. Is that ok? I don't want to do anything that would get me in trouble.

That video, in the whole, makes hunters look sadistic [:'(]




It's almost as bad as Justin's avatar [8D]

No, that's fine. We all need to be aware of the people amongst us that give bowhunters a bad name. Hopefully we can all learn from this and if you know someone like this help to change their ways, or possibly this will prevent a young hunter from being brought up to think these types of behaviors are acceptible.

I was [:'(]ing at the video. It made me sick.

When I saw it I wanted to reach through the screen and kick the snot out of both of those guys. The idiot talks actually says he was going for spine shot from the front. Which is almost as bad in my eyes.

MDBUCKHUNTER sent me a picture of a doe that was caught on a trail cam that has a broken off arrow between her eye and jaw. Then I saw this and about snapped.

A good example of a terrible shot! And why would they want to share that with the world? Morons [:@]

It might be different if somehow you hit one in the head on ACCIDENT, but were trying for a more ethical shot. When he laughs about it is when it ticks me off. Freak things happen ( hit twigs) or anything to where it could send an arrow off course but when he laughs and says he was going for the spine shot [:'(].

I agree 100% with you and also flagged it.

What gets me is that when its down and flopping around, that they did not put another arrow into it and end it. A$$holes!!!!

I am aware of a gentleman who has a picture of a doe with an arrow in her face. He did not shoot her. It is a picture from a trail camera. Some other idiot shot her and so far she has lived through the season.

I was going to post the picture but I cannot find the strength to do so. I can't stand to see it and don't want the burden of viewing such a catastophyto fall on anyone else.

This kind of crap makes me sick. I know for a fact that there are a few people on this site that have done that very thing. Labeling the deer a "pesky doe" and they "shot her just to get rid of her". I won't name any names.

I am a hunter and I am proud to be a hunter with a soft heart. Shots like this make me sick. People like this make me sick. If you are going to hunt, pay respect to nature and hunt ethically. Everybody should be shooting for quick kills or not shooting at all.
