The defensive responses tell a lot.
Keep telling yourself you’re that great sportsmen. I’m sure most believe it...

Not real sure why you got such a hard on for other hunters, but myself I can't see a lot of difference between watching corn or watching an Oak tree dropping acorns. In fact if you have Oaks dropping acorns, you probably are wasting your time watching the corn. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

What hunters? Don’t have oak trees either. I’m just waiting for one of you to admit it’s not really hunting.

Seems like there is a lot of schit that you don't have. miles

Ok, just admit it’s a lot easier than doing your homework and setting a tree stand on a deer trail, or spot and stalk, or just HUNTING for game.
Instead of baiting the game to come to you....
Do you agree? Yes or no will work.

The thing is, no matter how or where you hunt, your method is always easier than what someone else does. I did a 12 day walk-in hunt for Dall Sheep, with backpacks. It wasn't easy. And then I read about guys who do the same kind of hunt but with archery gear.
A wise man is frequently humbled.

Compared to sitting under a feeder and shooting it. Which one would you feel like you’ve EARNED?

You’re right, I don’t. Not so sure about that. Something is driving you to stir up schit. miles

Which one would you feel like you’ve EARNED? The way that I hunt pleases me, but what you seem to want is for me to hunt the way that pleases you. miles

You’re right, I don’t.
I do. Every single time I pull the trigger. Increasing so the older I get. eta: Perhaps not a feeling of guilt, so much as a remorse and empathy and understanding. Doesn't keep me from hunting, but I didn't have that when I was younger.

8k views on this thread. The same 25 guys posting. I guarantee you I know what most folks think, including what you two know deep down.
Most just don’t have the stones to admit it.

Barry, I respect you and appreciate the advice you’ve given me on many things. Let’s just agree to disagree. It’s not worth it.
You guys take it easy.

You guys take it easy. I guess we do about this. It's pointless to debate ethics. Everyone has their own ideas about things. Everyone thinks that the way they do things is "right". Not just about deer hunting, but pretty much everything they do. If they didn't, they wouldn't do it. Not shot a deer over corn since I was a kid. Didn't do it much then either. I'm just not going to tell someone else how they should hunt. If having the liberals tell us what to do and not do leaves a bad taste in your mouth, I don't see how this is any different... That is the point I've been trying to make. If I have "taken sides" in this pissing match, it's the side of letting everyone have the freedom to do what they want, as long as it's legal.

Doesn't keep me from hunting, but I didn't have that when I was younger. Strangely, I'm right there with you on that. But I also agree with sandbilly. I've often said that things like planters, plows, seed, crops and feeders are the tools of the farmer and a hunter has no need for those things.

Well, since hunting is seasonal here, I have to disagree. Also I do like some vegetables along with my meat. miles
