No, I haven't followed all the posts on this new board.
<br> I've known alot of "long range hunters". Very few have really studied the subject, and, above all, practiced.
<br> Fortunately, we do have some posters who really know how to do it right.
<br> I really appreciate that. Long Range hunting is not just buying the latest super magnum, the latest variable scope, and going to it. I'm glad to see that there are those that do understand how it's done, and what it takes.
<br> I've noted over the years many who think this is somehow cheating, unfair to the other hunters, the game, and somehow gives the Long Range Hunters an edge that few of us can enjoy.
<br> This has not been my experience, at least as far as deer hunting goes. Deer are very hard to see. They like to stick to cover. The older ones, especially, learn to get really good at that.
<br> Of all the really successfull throphy hunters I know only two did it that way. And they had to hunt really pristine areas where the deer had very little experience with hunters.
<br> So, I say, more power to these guys. They, without a doubt, put the required effort into their sport. I like to see that. E
