Anti Hunters and P.C.
Well I talked to one of my fellow teachers the other day and he is an anti hunter and a vegan. He does not understand why we "kill" animals. This got me thinking, do we as hunters need to be more politically correct? Why do I find myself changing terminology when talking to antis and non-hunters? Think about it, ask yourself if you do the following, and then you will know if you are P.C.
1. Do you "kill" or "harvest" an animal?
2. Are you a "hunter" or "Conservationist"
3. Are you a mature deer hunter or trophy hunter? There is a difference to these people.
4. Do you shoot a deer or arrow one?
5. Did youmake a bad shot or a marginal one?
6. Do you find blood or sign?
What is the result?

Political correctness is the thought that you can pick up a turd by the clean end.
On the flip side, there is no need to throw that turd in anyone's face. Know what I mean?

3. Are you a mature deer hunter or trophy hunter? There is a difference to these people. MATURE (Does and Bucks)
4. Do you shoot a deer or arrow one? SHOOT
5. Did youmake a bad shot or a marginal one? BAD
6. Do you find blood or sign? BLOOD and SIGN
What is the result? A successful hunt.

RE: Anti Hunters and P.C.
We should never change the way we talk just for the company around us. If you question how you talk in front of an anti, then question how you talk in front of other hunters.
Now I am going to go try and KILL a deer. Hope it leaves a good BLOOD trail after I SHOOT it.

RE: Anti Hunters and P.C.
P.C. ? Why? They are anti. doesnt matter how we doll it up, they are agianst it. Period.
Lets look at the facts;
We kill an animal. Call it harvest, call it dispatch. All = death that we cause.
Dont get me wrong, you should show respect and take what you need and do so as fast and clean as possible. But to doll up the language means nothing.
