Anything

hunting if you eat the meat good. Hunting if you leave the carcass to rot, bad.

Half my family is oakie, hunting is A-OK, even for sport.

@Gewehr:

Anything!?….  :evil: how about politics JOKE !!JOKE!!!  :lol:

Well, me and my dad are going trap shooting and testing out our new 50. cal balckpowder riffle  sat. :evil:  :evil: before we go hunting pheasant.

So what do ya’ll think about hunting…good, don’t care, or, OMFG! how horible!!!

Me, I think it’s good, controls pop. of areas that have too many derr, pheasant ect. conservasion.

I hunt regularly.  If you want a challenge get a 12 ga. barrel for your black powder and hunt pheasant with that.  It get’s more fun when you only have one shot. ;)

I am considering a buffalo hunt in January.  It’s a bit pricy, all together probably $1500, but it’ll be worth it when I have 500 pounds of meat in the freezer.

So far this year I have hunted deer and dove, there’s something satisfying about hunting, killing and eating the representative symbol of peace…  Does that make me sound overly American?

I grew up hunting and fishing.

White tail deer, grouse, pheasant, rabbit, squirrel, turkey…
Modern rifle (30/30 for dear, .22 for squirrel), Shotgun (12 gauge), muzzleloader (.50 flintlock, PA did not allow percussion caps for mussleloader season), and archery season (Bear Recurve).

Crappy, Bass, Walleye, Trout, Muskie (you need steel leader for those, even then they bite through it from time to time).

All of it was for food on the table.  I ate a LOT of game as a kid.

The only “short” fishing I ever did was for Carp.  Fun to catch when they pull your boat up and down the river for an hour, but they taste terrible, so catch and release.  And sport shooting was only clay pigeons, targets, or some “reactive” targets (sharpshooting black walnuts still in the husk with a .22…  when you hit the nut in the center, they explode!)

see, i was talking about buffalo in jens post.

i asked if anyone ever had the urge to ride a buffalo at full gallop b/c i sure have.  and when i go to wyoming in the future, i will!  it’ll be better than sprinting on a horse.

the only hunting i would do is with a spear.  playing paintball, i’ve been close enough to deer to throw a spear at them.  i’ve been about 10-15 feet away from one.  it could be done, then i’d just start eating it raw right there, get back to humankinds roots.

Same here… I hunted wild boar, deer, squirrel, and duck. Fished big game… (king fish, swordfish, halibut, crab). And then I like to hit cats in the yard with an aerosoft gun.

I like hunting but just never make time for it. A little more difficult in a city. :-P

Agreeded also, the Native Americans have the right idea of using everything till those calverymen came along and killed millions of  buffalo for their hide tungs, and horns  :x  :cry:

calverymen

no its Cavalry. Calvery is a church organization of sorts

Calvery is a church organization of sorts

Actually it’s Calvary, not Calvery, mr imperious grammar!
