Let's all disrespect a regal game animal by taking poke and hope shots that do nothing but cause the animal to suffer injury and slow death and give the anti's fuel to use against hunting. I'm sure everyone here supports that. Sarcasm off.

There certainly is. I'm not criticizing anyone because I'm guilty as well, I just think its interesting.
For example I definitely give deer more consideration than a coyote
If I see a coyote and have a gun I'm prolly gonna shoot at it.
How many hunter shoot ducks and geese and just throw them in a ditch? I don't because I like them but most people don't but I will shoot an old nasty coyote and leave him laying....Ive seen me do it.

It's a common thing each must address and we can discuss the matter without it leading to finger pointing at some point. Regardless of the conversation for our own enlightenment, each person will still make their own personal decisions-hopefully w/respect to the laws.

Everyone has different standards and as long as what they do is legal I don't have any issues. My own standards are that I eat whatever I kill. If I don't want to eat it I don't shoot at it. I understand that others don't see it that way and that is OK with me.

And just what figures on a nationwide basis can you produce that backs up your claim that most hunters waste the meat of waterfowl they shoot? Because I don't know anyone that does that. Waste of game meat is a serious offense in every state and if you personally know a lot of people that waste the resource and you don't report them then you are in essence part of the problem.

Flags can u back up ur ealrier statement about "even more are wounded than killed" with some figures? I would appreciate that. Also, you should be reporting all those ppl wounding animals if you are aware of them.

Yeah, what about it? The topic is deer(drives). Always somebody that can't stay w/the subject.

I think what I said is very much on topic. I think you are just mad because I made a good point.
