Hi folks,
I haven't posted much since I'm more of a fisherman, but I'm getting back into hunting. I saw something on outdoors tv that just turned my stomach.
There was a show on where they were hunting on a private ranch in Western New York. At the beginning of the show they were talking in front of the lodge and there were deer everywhere! I mean even getting in the way of the camera!!! I'm not just talking does and button bucks. There were monstorous Bucks with beautiful multi tined racks! Now there had to be a serious fence line there to keep all of these bucks in but I just couldn't believe my eyes! Can you really call this hunting?
The had their hunt and it was beautiful to watch, but I just really couldn't believe my eyes seeing a crowd of deer like that like you were in a crowded airport!
It's been a while since I've been deer hunting and I really can't wait to do it again, but the part I really enjoyed was the stalking of the prey and and then if I was lucky, the possibility of harvesting a beautiful animal.
I would have thought that it would have been more of a challenge for these guys if they were just given a short blade knife instead of a high power rifle!
This is just my opinion guys and I'm curious about everybody elses take on this sort of hunting.
Moosie, thanks for the awesome site! Keep up the great work!
