I'd consider them guys in africa pro hunters.

Otherwise "pro" just means getting paid. Who cares whether they earned it or BS'd thier way to it, to bought into it.
Very true!

Try to follow this train of thought....

A pro is someone who gets paid to do a job as earlier explained.

I am in the military thus I am a professional airman.

All military personnel are paid 24/7/365 because defending this great nation is not a 9 - 5 job.

Since I am paid 24/7/365, when I take leave (vacation) I am still getting paid.

Since I hunt while on leave, I am being paid to hunt.

Therefore, I am a professional hunter.

Now for endorsers, which is quite a bit easier to explain...

All military personnel are paid by the federal government.

All federal money comes from taxes.

Taxes are paid by all people earning income.

Therefore, every tax payer (which includes the majority here) is my sponsor.

Thanks guys.

To be a so called "Pro Hunter", you had better have a good , outgoing personality and be charasmatic, not only to project a likable image on TV and videos, but in order to succeed with sponsors. Thats why I am not a professional hunter.........I am too moody, too grouchy, to set in my ways, too ugly, not likable enough nor patient enough to visit the stores and sports shows to sign autographs and answer stupid questions from the public. I am also known to stutter occasionally[8D]
