My apologies for not having enough time to read this thread before heading off to work (I will get to it), BUT, the fact of the matter is that my hunting does not affect you tree huggers so sod off. As far as the "sports" where animals are tortured or run to death, I am as appalled as you are. Just don't compare apples with oranges when it comes to real hunting. And don't judge hunting by what you see on the TV. Those assholes on TNN who hunt just for the "trophy" and "score" the kill based on the rack are giving the rest of us a bad name.
