Dear PETA,

I like eating little deer, they are yummy. You know the ones like Bambi, heck if I could I would take out his friendthe rabbit, the squirrel, and any other forest animal I have a license and open season for.They are the perfect size for two big crock pot roasts, ummmmm delicious, my mouth waters just thinking about it. I hear soy burgers are really good....cough...cough...bs....cough....cough. Anyway, stay lame!




That is about how much I care what a PETA member or any other animal rights/anti-hunting group thinks. If any were browsing on here Iam not worriedin the least about anything I have posted. I ask them to openly engage in a factual conversation about hunting and if any of the non-hunting public is interested in finding out anything about huntingthat would be the conversation to sit in on. ButI'm sure these groups wouldn't be interested because factual conversations about hunting and its benefits are not something they can intelligently dispute, so until they can I care very little about their input or influence. Ask any non-hunter you know what they think of PETA and most will say they are a joke, because they are.

Hear! Hear!

This is a hunting site. If we can't say what we want in here.....God help us. It's what we say and do outside of here that worries me (some). In here......we're "home".

I don't give a rat's ass what anyone EDUCATED on the matter thinks about me or anyone elsekilling a doe fawn. If they feel the way they feel after hearing WHY.....then we'll just have to agree to disagree.

If I was judging then I would be condemning it which im not and clearly stated in my post.
You said it was immoral didn't you. Ahhhh Scotland can't even bowhunt there can you?

Its immoral to kill one and people would probably give you looks for it.

Im suprised it is allowed in America, indeed.
Not judging,sure your not.

...threads like this when some people have to justify their reasons for Killing bambi and look for support on an Open Public Forum and others have to join in with their YUM YUM Bambi tastes so good, without thinking

Shoot what you must, but take a moment to think about what you post!

hmmm...I don't try to justify my reasons and certainly don't look for support on this or any other forum. Like I said...I go to the woods to kill a deer, I have a tag, a doe fawn (which some bio's feel is the best target for overall health of the herd) walks into range. That all looks like a reason to shoot it to me.

But, I do find it comical when guys like you come on a public forum and tell others what they do shouldn't be done because you don't agree with it. I am sure all of us bambi killers will take your edict to heart this fall, that only rookie and novices should kill a fawn.

I don't know where you hunt, but somehow in my 30 years of calling myself a deer hunter, I have yet to have any deer of any age follow me to my stand. I won't sit here and tell you a fawn is a challenge, but I will tell you that I stand to loose permission on some of my places if the landowner found out I passed up any antlerless deer.
Well you posted on this one twice!
Robin, Robin, for you I will repeat my last sentence.
Shoot what you must, but take a moment to think about what you post!
Lets see where do I start,
Well heck If I had a doe fawn tag from a Bio I guess I would shoot one too! Give me a Hint, Large tract of QDM or high fence?
Now I did not tell you or anyone else not to shoot a fawn, as a matter of factI gave a few good reasons to shoot one that you chose to belittle me with.
As far as where I have hunted Mi, Md, Va, NC, SC, Ga, Al, Ky and Kansas and have had invites from several well known bowhunters over the years for other states but there is only so much of me to go around, so take your pick.

Im Glad you think I am comical, we all need a good laugh in the off season, but now its my turn. I was LMAO when you said you had 30 years deer hunting experience and never called a fawn in and have it fallow you to your stand, I have done this several times, called a 6pt to me on the way to the stand I had to throw a stick at to get rid of, ran into a 8 and 9pt on different occasions and called them back to put an arrow in, almost got Hunched By a monster Buck in Kansas I ran into going to the stand that I called back to me, would have taged him but had no tines off one of his main beams. So I got quite a chuckel out of your post also.
But then maybe thats why I was writing magazine articles and on a bowhunting staff when you still had suction cups on the end of your arrows.

Tell ya what, because I am a nice guy, you learn how to post polite on this forum without calling someone a comic or a lier and when I get moved back to Kansas this year give me a PM, and I will teach you grasshopper!
It is ok if you want to dress me down, but, really...you oughta do it according to what I actually say. No where in my quote can you find anything that says I have never called in a fawn (or any other deer), nor did I call you a liar. What I DID say is that I have never had a deer of any age follow me to my stand. Why did I say that? Well...because I haven't. I suppose that could be wortha"LMAO" as you put it, but I guess I don'tquite get it.

And...no, no high fenceor intensiveQDMproperties for me. What I do have is permission on private propertiesin whichlandowners demand that antlerless deer get removed, or they will find someone else willing to do it. Some are sub-urban props, some are agricultural areas. In fact, most landownerscan't standthe fact that littlebucks get a pass...theydon't get it that I want to save my buck tags for somethingat leastdecent. So you see, I wasn't my intention to belittle you, but was trying to give a legitiment debate to your statement that "A young hunter or a rookie should take the first opportunity at a kill shot that presents itself, to get their first kill and gain confidence in their equipment, thats the only reasonI cansee to kill a fawn." (Yeah...for you, I'll go ahead and repeat your first sentence.)

So...I guess theend result for me is that if a doe fawn follows me to my stand on most of my properties...she'll get shot if shegets close enough.

Beyond that...When are you moving to KS?!?

In all seriousness Sliver, no disrespect or belittling was meant in that post of mine you quoted. I apologize if you took it that way.

No apologie necessary Robin, as a matter of fact I am probably the one that should apologize for not explaining myself better in my first post, and the suction cups on your arrows was probably a little much.
I was answering this thread for myself and where I hunt not as a blanket statement condemning others, however I stand fast on fawns being dumber than dirt, thats just a fact and we cant change it, and no reason to boast on a public forum for killing one.

I will be headed to Kansas the end of july.

I don't recall anyone doing this. I didn't boast whenwe'd kill a steer growing up, either.....but it sure was necessary and the eatin' was superb.

Any bow kill is worthy of some credit, not bragging, but simple and humbles thankfulness and pride all together!!

My understanding is that it is very difficult to afford to hunt in Scotland or anywhere in the UK and that the gamekeeper is employed by the land owner and not the state.

I received permits to kill seven deer last season (gave up at four) and am just guessing that we have alot more deer here than Scotland ever will. I don't think reducing numbers is one of their goals for the most part.

Edinborough sure does have a nice tatoo though..
