If you read the thread and what is actually in print you will not find any negative comments by the undersigned about any of the people (BR Shooters) you have mentioned save one. The comment made about said individual was hasty and was a little on the harsh side and would probably have rephrased the comment if the humor meant by his comment was fully appreciated at the time. When you make the inference that people are somehow placed in a higher level worth according to the number of HOF points by me that is an incorrect assumption and we both know what happens when you assume. The other comments were just poking fun at a few of the ignorant who do not know any better and that can be fixed given time as not everyone has the good fortune to have the do what I do (a Lot of money and time go into this activity and we are not talking about building or buying guns but rather buying, maintaining, the equipment and materials required to bring the land and habitat goals to fruition). If I am one of the few who puts my money where my mouth then so be it. Some just want to pay their money and kill something----no law against that as long as they comply with the regulations.
Talk is cheap and some of my views are jaded by the lease hunters who hunt on the fence lines which I have no issue with as it is free range rules and high fence is nothing more than hunting at the zoo. I have had many cited for trespassing that I have caught and when you see fences cut so that game can be drug under the bottom wire it makes one a little calloused. So in short I see a side of hunting some do not.
