RE: LAUGHING AFTER THE KILL??
Were talking about guys laughing "ON CAMERA" in the many Turkey hunting video's out on the market!!! I don't personally care what anyone does after the shot "off" camera, but there are many people who watch those videos, and some might get a sour impression of this sport of ours. Our Hunting rights are being tested every year, so we don't need clowns like those giving anyone more ammo. Read the first post before jumping in on a thread, you just might have a clue what were talking about!!

RE: LAUGHING AFTER THE KILL??
Oh come on people. Some people just get all excited and happy after a big accomplishment. I smile and say Yes, Yes , Yes and maybe chuckle a bit after I shoot one.
Whats wrong with that? Ya'll act like people are poking fun at the animal and and saying
"Ha, Ha, I killed your a#$.
Ive watched a ton of these videos and all I see is some hunters that are happy and excited at the end of that adrenlin rush. These videos are supposed to be exciting. I guess they should just shoot the bird and sit there for a minute and then say " well bob, looks like I just got one." Lets walk over there and admire this beautiful bird." Ok Frankl". Lets check it out. " This is supposed to be fun folks. I guess ya'll wont want to go hunting with me. I DO get excited after the shot. And I Do laugh sometimes. I dont see why the people on video should be any different.
I'll try not to get tooo excited next time.

Holy moly Maytom. Deep breath buddy.
I did read bhw's post again and the first thing I noticed was
Kind of telling that a post needs that at the beginning. Indicative of the resposnes that come when people make comments.
I also noticed he said
didn't say that it was an issue with
Just asked an opinion on laughing after the kill. People giving opinions. That's all.
Your point has merit I think although your presenatations kind of suspect. Things that make you go "hmmmm"

It probably isn't a laugh like something is funny. Rather, it is the outlet of the person's emotion. I've known several people who laugh when nervous or in times of emotion, but surely aren't doing so because something is funny.
The MossyOak commercial doesn't bother me much, in it they say essentially they aren't cool, they're lucky...

I alway give thanks to the man up stairs after a kill. Then I just sit down and kinda come down off a serious high and admire3 my bird
I think anybody that dosent get really worked up after a kill kills to many easy turkeys!!!! Just my 2 cent...

Guys,
I really wanted to see if I was the only one who felt as I did. I expected a variety of responses and that is fine. Everyone has some valid points.
Let's stick together and have fun with our sport

RE: LAUGHING AFTER THE KILL??
The video situation is different. They have alot of money tied up into their situation. I agree with you. It makes my wife ticked off and she usually leaves the room when they start laughing. I 've shot lots of game also and have never laughed. I 'm usually quiet and quickly try to leave the area before another hunter sees me in my hot spot.
