Real Hunters only?

Question

Isn't it great that all the anti-hunters can't have as much fun as we do. I went hunting in November and on the way to camp there were some people protesting deer hunting by a country store .They were standing out in the cold rain and we told them we were going to go to camp and have a big steak then sit around the fireplace and talk about what we were going to shoot tommorrow. Then two of my buddies mooned them and we drove away. Does anyone have a story they would like to share?

Speaking of drunk rednecks has anyone ever been to a Nascar race at Talladaga Raceway in Alabama.Thats the most rednecks I have ever seen and they party for days.

Answer 1

I'm gonna start my own PETA chapter here and all of you are welcome only thing is my PETA stands for People Eating Tastey Animals, come on all you anti hunters get a life , do you eat at taco bell , Kentucky fried chicken or any meat whatsoever, then where do you think it came from do you think the meat in tacos is made from wheat or the chicken or steak you eat is grown in a field on a stalk, I feed all kinds of animals in the forest I spend MY free time planting food plots , I spend MY money to feed corn , I spend MY money for the license, I spend MY money for gas and other amenities while I'm out there, I've spent well over 10,000 dollars in the last 5 yrs on wildlife and have shot 5 deer, now i probably fed 10,000 rabbits , raccoons, birds, deer squirrels and who knows what else, now what the hell have you done for the wildlife except destroy their habitat for the wood to build your fancy a.s.s. house and use your gas guzzling never going off road SUV to go eat your steak that someone else killed for you because you dint have the guts to do it yourself , if you do away with hunting then there will be more endangered species added to the list every year,

Answer 2

When I first began hunting back in the mid 80’s, it seemed to be quite a fight between hunters and anti-hunters in certain areas of Wisconsin (I think it was before hunter harassment laws were passed).

I was hunting an area in Northern Wisconsin on private land that bordered public land. The group I was with was preparing a deer drive on the public land when we ran into a group of protesters walking on logging roads and quickly they “zeroed” in on us. After a quick conversation, one of the middle aged guys told me, another young teen and a few adults to walk through the woods about a ½ mile and drive the woods back to them near the logging road.

To our amusement, the anti’s started following us into the woods, trying to egg us on like they were trying to start a fist fight with us by insulting our “manhood” and anything else they could think of (never understood trying to pick a fight with an armed person, but hey, to each their own).

Once we got about a 1/4 or ½ mile into the woods, we began our drive. We spaced ourselves out with the anti’s still following. I’m not sure if they realized it, but they were essentially helping us drive the deer. Our standers ended up shooting a doe.

I found the whole experience pretty funny. As a relatively fit 12 year old (maybe I was 13), walking through the woods was no problem for me. Some of the more “hefty” middle aged anti’s following me (not to make fun of them…I’m a fat, overweight, middle aged man myself now) were definitely falling back after trekking after us in the brush.

When I got to the stander who shot the deer, the DNR was there checking licenses and stuff, so the anti group kind of went their own way.

I still hunt on public land now. I hike more than a mile away from the road so I rarely see another hunter, much less an anti. Other than the occasional person driving down the road blowing their horn or a moron walking down the road with a boom box blaring, I have never ran into anti’s again.

The anti’s hearts are in the right place, I think they are just ignorant, misinformed, or a combination of the two. As humans have removed many of the predator species in the US, hunters are necessary to keep balance in animal populations. Hunters are an enigma, they kill the same animals that they love.

I don’t agree with the anti’s, but more power to them. At least we live in a country where even an uninformed jackass can voice their opinion.

i agree with you all. I care just as much about animals as any of the "tree huggers" but im not an idiot who thinks any human intervention is bad. instead i give money for a hunting lisence to help out with the environment. I could sit here all night giving my opinion, but i dont care that much. its their own ignorance that they think we are the bad guys.

I do my part by getting other people into hunting, and teaching them the proper ways of hunting. its not mindless killing, it is a way of gathering, and at the same time a great sport. I have introduced several people to hunting and shooting, and the other day actually i showed one of my friends how to clean a squirl properly.

i have people tell me im mean all the time, i usually dont worry about what they say because i know i am doing nothing wrong. the story about the guy with the antlers on his head: that guy has to be the biggest idiot. thats like going to a gun range and standing there with a target on your back. i woulda shot in the air to scare him, then told him you almost shot him.

I aways pose this question when faced with the vocal non-hunting community, What do you do for the animals? Other than yell and scream how horrible it is to hunt and kill animals. Have you ever seen animals dying of starvation, when they are so hungry they are willing to eat hay from a humans hand. I did not see any anti-hunter's taking bales of 2nd cutting in the woods to help them. I didn't see any anti's planting 40 acres of corn just for the deer. Not bait but feed for the winter. When we decided to take all their land with our houses and pave our roads and continue relentlessly to take their land, we by default, designated ourselves the managers of these animals to try and sustain a healthy enviroment. I love listening to anti hunters spew their garbage yet when they are done, they jump in their SUV and head on home to their 3000+ sq ft house. There nothing more than hipocrites. I spend roughly 3000 a year to feed. Not to bait. We hunters do more for the animals than you idiots that stand by yelling how horrible killing animals are.
So when we take our normal productive children into woods with us and they enjoy and want to be there, I will think about you ridiculous anti-hunters who can only stand on your soap box and tell everyone how great your child is yet you probably never see there pimply little face due to the video game system you got them to occupy your time. Then when they get older and they are the ones that decide go on a nut and kill their class mates, you got no one else to blame but yourself, however you guys sure make a valiant attempt to blame everyone else.
Have a nice life hope it is as bitter as your rhetoric

Goodluck and Godspeed

Answer 5

I, like Miketyson26 also had a bead on a group of treehuggin hippies when I was hunting a national forrest in Virginia. They scared away the tom I had been working into range for an hour an a half. I had never been so mad in my life.

Answer 6

I had a bead drawn on a tree hugger by accident in the national forest one day. Damn guy was riding a mountain bike down a trail wearing camo and a hat with antlers on it.

I called him a fricken idiot! And he started reading me the riot act about killing bambi. I bit my tongue and walked away.

I guess I wasn't the only person the tree huggers pissed off that day. Because as I was passing the national forest sign I saw him and a couple of his buddys crying because someone had smashed in all their windows and flattened their tires. The tow truck driver smiled and nodded at me as I drove passed. I guess it ain't the first time "country justice" had dealt with morons out to ruin a good day hunting.

Answer 7

Slider, I grew up in Northern Wisconsin and remember that story well. LOL. (We used to hunt the Jump River area)

My opinion is this:
If PETA loved animals so much, they'd pony up the money to build ten foot high fences along every highway in the Midwest so their precious critters didn't get squished.

Answer 8

I love hunting and i hate all those tree huggers that are against guns and killing animals because the animals do have rights. well i agree every fox or bear that killed a animal on my farm has the right to a fair trial. P.S. i'm the judge, jury and excecutioner when i comes to one of these trials.

Answer 9

Those people don't even understand. If I don't kill a rabbit quite quickly with my shotgun, odds are it will freeze, starve, die of disease, or be eaten, all of which take longer than me shooting it. If you believe that humans evolved from apes, then you know nature made us hunters. It's why we had enough spare time to evolve. If you're a strict creationist, then God gave us critters to eat.

*Glamorous*
Now isn’t that cute, were being trashed by a16 year old bimbo.
Wow with a name like that makes you thank she’s has a very high opinion of her self.
She needs to go back to playing with her Dolly, and leave us hunters to discuss our own pleasures.
Little girl does your mother know where you are.

Remember children should be seen and not heard!

This little girl needs to spend more time with her Therapist, to deal with her aggression towards MEN.

Now with a name like Glamorous that would have to be a perfect example of a Freudian!
