RE: Is my arrow really heavy?
Even if an elk takes a step at 84 yards,he is still dead,he has a freaking kill zone the size of a satelite dish.An arrow will cover that distance in well under a second.
Deer move at 15 yards as much or more than an elk will at 80 if he is feeding and relaxed. Everyone has THEIR ethics,stick to them and you will be an ethical hunter.;) |
RE: Is my arrow really heavy?
Everyone has THEIR ethics,stick to them and you will be an ethical hunter.;) so if I go out and buya setup compound tonight from a pawn shop, an odd mix of arrows and old broadheads, don't practice shoot and go out tomorrow morning and shoot at/wound a couple of bigbucks you're fine with that, right ? I mean, I'm legal in doing it, its my personal ethics, not yours - right ? |

Merriam-Webster defines "ethics" as: 1 - the discipline dealing with what is good and bad and with moral duty and obligation. 2 -a set of moral principles: a theory or system of moral values. 3 - the principles of conduct governing an individual or a group. 4 -a guiding philosophy 5 -a consciousness of moral importance "Ethics" arepersonalandextremely open to interpretation and debate (don't we know it:D). Ifsomeone went out and bought your setup as indicated above and went out hunting, would it be ethical? I guess it's totally dependent uponthat particularindividuals moral convictions. I wouldn't agree with it,but it's not my place to judge someone else or attempt to force them to accept my personal beliefs and moral convictions as their own. If it's legal and they feel that is acceptable, then I wish them all the luck in the world. |

BC:
Your scenario is played out every year by most every hunter. We all make our own, similar decisions. What gets meare the ones who choose to shoot (given your scenarios) and end up successful. Many feel that the end result justifies their decision. Me, I respect your decision a LOT more than I admire their successes. |

Never saw eitheragain, guess they were passing thru. |
