BruiserKC 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2005 Tomorrow here is the start of something near and dear to my heart...deer hunting with bow. To me, hunting is an awesome sport...the idea of being at one with nature and going against the animals in their own terrain has a rush that very little compares to. For future reference...any other hunters here? And are hunting posts copasectic in the sports forums? I know some of you are not necessarily thinking of hunting as a sport, lol.

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2005 Yeah, hunting sucks. I'm not gonna sit in a tree for three hours so I can murder an animal. If I want nature, I'll ride my bike. But if you're gonna keep the deer population down in the southeast Wisconsin-northeast Illinois area, have at it, because my dad and I almost hit one of those fuckers when I was a little kid.

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted October 1, 2005 If you REALLY want to go against animals in their own terrain, try killing them with something that'll give you a bit more of a challenge than firearms. EDIT: Except, of course, if you're going up against armed deer. Then have at it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We hold a very deep and honest appreciation for all that is outdoors. We're more alike to the PETA-types than people believe. If you think I'm a murderer, so be it.

Have you ever used a bow? A bow when hunting isn't an easy weapon, especially on a moving target. A deer isn't defenceless either. It has superior hearing, sense of smell, and is faster. It might not be able to shoot back but it's perfectly capable of avoiding a hunter. If you're hunting for food then I don't find anything wrong with it.

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted October 3, 2005 What do you mean defenseless? Deer are real god damn fast, have incredibly acute senses of smell and hearing, sharp antlers and hooves, and they're bigger than a large man. It'd be real smart to run down and wrastle one of those. Moose kill people every year. Birds are airborne and plentiful. Do I need to explain the defenses of a bear? A bow and arrow is definitely a fair matchup. How is attacking a bear with say, a knife anywhere close to fair? The bear is exponentially stronger, larger, and faster, like any other wild game that's worth hunting. Since wild animals are superior physically, humans must use resourcefulness. That's fair. I'd say it's a safe wager that those bashing hunting have probably never done it. Despite the fact that we can go buy all manner of hormone and preservative-laden foods, or expensive but questionable organic products, I still think it's quite fine to legally hunt and kill wild game for food and decoration. People have been doing that for..always. I'm far from an avid huntsman, but I'll go out a few times every other year or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2005 No. A good marksman (with a bow and arrows) would easily kill an animal. I know this because I've taken up archery for many years. It's just as lethal as a gun. Hence man has an advantage over deer. Now a bear... that'd be a good fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2005 Also, just to be clear, I've hunted before in the valleys of West Virginia. Though I suspect the purpose of my hunts were far more noble than BruiserKC (food). I came to the conclusion what I was doing was wrong. I like the Native Americans' way of doing it. They make use of EVERYTHING of the animal they hunted. Skin? Used it for their clothes or tepees. Meat? Eat it. I will never hunt for sport again. Though hey if others want to, all the power to them. If it makes them feel like a big man.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fur can make excellent gloves, lining, etc. Besides, if we didn't do this, the overpopulation would become a major issue. More and more we see deer that overpopulate to the point where we see them in the cities looking for food. And if a deer is feeling threatened, it will attack a person I've seen it happen.

Plus, most of the heads and points on the deer that get stuffed I turn around and sell to rich folk who come for the hunting and want to pretend that they actually caught something. I started doing that back in high school when my uncle and I had gone over our limit. These millionaires from California wanted to take some deer heads home with them, so we had a couple of them stuffed and sold them. No one has to know.
