RE: Honest Question: Cow hunts.
 

Sorry!

I meant to post this:

Because you can't destroy/kill/put down/dispatch/euthanize/harvest a wild deer/elk/antelopeby simply walking up to it and shooting in the head with a captive bolt. You have to kill them from a distance. A bullet or arrow is the most sure and humane way to do this.

RE: Honest Question: Cow hunts.
 

Many would argue that the most humane way to let them die is to let nature take its course and to let them return to the earth while we all eat tofu and sing Kum Ba Ya. All I'm saying is that we shouldn't cast how we dispatch our prey in too negative a light. We all know it isn't a perfect method, but what is?

Know what I'm saying?

RE: Honest Question: Cow hunts.
 

Yes, but they'd be wrong. ;)

I know what you're saying, I guess I don't see it as being negative so much as being honest.

Bowhunting is humane, but if we had to put our dog down and we had a choice between shooting it inthe head with a gun or shooting it in the chest with an arrow. (somebody already brought something like this up) Most all of us would chose the bullet in the brain. That's a long way from secretly thinking our archery equipment is inhumane. That's all I'm saying.

But enough this talk of cow shooting, it's making me hungry. (by the way you can hunt wild cows and horses in Australia)
I'm off to wrestle with my lawn mower some more...

Hey Christine,

Does that mean it's time for a haircut, or actually mowning the lawn[:-]:D

RE: Honest Question: Cow hunts.
 

Well, I do need a hair cut.

Half the lawn is mowed but both mowers have died. I just replaced the throttle cable on the rider but now the battery is dead. [:@]

It's a big yard. I should have cows. :D

RE: Honest Question: Cow hunts.
 

That gives me an idea. The next time someone posts "let's see your shooting range" I'm going to post a picture of cows in a pasture:D
