"I think part of it, come from growing in up Eastern Ky for me. Killing animals was no big deal. We had farms around us, you butchered the animals, you eat the animals. Everybody hunted, everybody killed deer. You thanked God for it after the kill, you eat.Then a whole crop of metrosexual hunters came to the scene from the cities. They had to make it into a magical, spirit of the wild adventure. Or in my words, new age fufu crap."

What about a merging of your thoughts...maybe some people thank God each time by recognizing the grace and beauty of the animals they kill? Your experience growing up is just that, yours. "Metrosexual" hunters...real nice from a God fearing man. So what is it to you if people having a different understanding of the woods and their place in it? How does that affect you, or are you really that self-righteous?

"Well, you keep on being one with the tree. You know what they way about opinions. Everyone's got em"

I will big, I will. I will also be one with God via being one with his beautiful creations. If you want to call that new age fufu crap, then so be it.

Goodness, you are one sensitive feller.:D Your the one who posted to me. So what is it to me that you that you want to be one in the woods? Nothing, have at it.Go crazy with it.:D You posted asking me questions. Not the other way around. I never asked you anything. Now, its, "are you self righteous". What does this have to do with anything in the post??? I mean your really going off on some wierd new age tangent here.

And where in my post did I say ME.... I said the rest of US. You're reading between your own lines.
Ok, fair enough. So you were just butting into apost between Jeff and I?

Oh that makes sense.:D
Wrong again. The question was possed by GMMAT. I gave him my opinion. You made a wild assed statement out of context and I called you on it. GMMAT as usual stuck up for you. I pointed out his error in not reading what was said. You jumped in and I pointed out YOUR errror. Where did I interrupt a conversation. I'm just pointing out slams with no context. This is not YOUR's and GMMAT's personnal forum. It's the same old Groupie thing. If you catch someone putting out crap or slamming someone for something they didn't say... you get Groupieized. You're wrong... Jeff was wrong and your only recourse was to slam me and have the group chime in with be nice to old folks. The brain still works. Give it up. I can read and understand what's written. Some folks should read what the write before they push the OK button. You seem to have taken it upon yourself to be the EXPERT in everything when you've actually had little experience at it.

No, absolutely not. High fence hunting is basically buying a deer. It is not hunthing. Go ahead and hate me for saying that if you really want to but it is the truth and I speak the truth. I like the Fred Bear song at the end when Fred is speaking about if they really want to go and get a thrill. Find an area where there is not all that much pressure for you and your son to explore that has a better than average chance of killing deer, they are out there. I found one myself but I am not sharing. [8D]

Good luck

Jeff

Let's make sure I am getting this right. You might take your son to a 200 acrehigh fenced huntin a big buck state???

Dude... you are taking this... "It's all about location" way too serious ?????? [8D][8D][8D] ;););):D:D:D:D:D:D

Sorry, I couldn't resist. What ever youand your son decide... I hope it works outs for the best.

Very bad idea.

I've said it 10000 times and I will say it again. I think that all forms of high fence hunting should be banned. There is not one single way that hunting animals in cages helps the image of TRUE hunting.

this topic got way out of hand

Once again, GMMAT posts yet another irrelevant post, with 143 replies. I could care less what you do with your kid. It's your kid. You want to teach him hunting in high fence, good job Daddy.Forget teaching him scouting, forget teaching him hunting, forget teaching him ethics, just tie a deer to a tree and let him kill it. Great Father/Son bond.
Just a quick response, valor....because I feel the need to educate you. My son knows what I put into this. He watches me live it (through my yearly efforts and seasonal regiments). He understands scouting (insomuch as we "have" to, here....knowing the herd as we do). He understands hunting. He's my son;). To even question "ethics" is kinda out of line, IMO. We work hard and sent him to Christian school (private) until HE wanted to go to the public HS. His choice. His ethics (and mine) are beyond reproach. I think the board would back me on that assertion. if this type endeavor isn't your cup of tea, fine. But I'd rather ethics be left out of this. It doesn't apply. And...our father/son bond is wonderful. My heart is full.;)

Dan...Apprciate those words. We fish, shoot, shoot skeet, and bond, regularly. This is just (possibly) "an" avenue we haven't explored. It would simply be a way to (again, "possibly") enhance our bonding....not define it.

GMMAT as usual stuck up for you.
LOL!!!!!!!!!! David....."ME"...sticking up for BC????

Dang, BC....I'm sure you'd find that hilarious, too!:D

Seriously, David....if you'll go back and read it, agian....with an open mind.....that quote you cited....it was BC speaking to ME. I was joking about the "nevermind" stuff, HONESTLY. If you read it in that context....ALL he was saying is....if any of you guys did a high fence hunt...."I" would have nothing bad to say to you about it. I'd have my opinion of what "I" thought it would or wouldn't mean to ME....but I won't project that onto what YOU might or might not take from the experience.

If I interpreted that wrong or said anything BC doesn't agree with.....I would hope he'd set me straight.

And I have the UTMOST respect for you, David. Always have. We butt heads from time to time...but I've also gotten your back when I saw others WEREN'T giving you the respect you deserve....as a veteran, a good husband, a patriot and someone who's beena round the woodlots a few times. Respect.
