I prefer plain talk, I kill sh*t every chance I get. Don't give a rat's ass who it offends. I can't even stand the word "take" (or "took") in the place of kill.

I kill. And no one is filming me as I flick off the safety.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

I see the term harvest, as opposed to hunt.

Example, killing a deer that lives around the house most of the time, and has no fear of me, that would be a harvest.

Killing a deer in his wild environment where I had to locate and close with, that is a hunt.

Either way, it is a kill.

Planned parenthood calls cutting up writhing babies "harvesting organs". The angel of death is known as the Grim Reaper, the definition of reap is "to harvest". I consign my trapped fur to "Fur Harvesters Auction".

When duck hunting, I’ll say “Kill em” when they’re in range.

I’m gonna try saying “Harvest Them” just to change it up a little.

Shows how much you know about me, and hunting Texas doesn't it?


It's all good JG.

Blackheart, I'll make you an offer. I made this offer years ago more than once, never had any takers. Mosey on down to Uvalde Texas, pretty much any time you want, as I'm retired. I'll meet you and we can go to my lease. I have a camper and there is a line shack you can stay in. Be sure to bring water as there is no potable water to be had other than what you bring in. Also bring anything else you require as we are 20 miles from the nearest town and six miles off the paved road.
If you want power, (it may be 90 degrees at 10 PM, May through September), you can use a spare generator we have.

Its a 60,000 + acre, low fenced/no fenced ranch, out of which we have a 1,700 acre pasture. No it is not high fenced, but we do bait. Chances are you are from and area that has plenty of public land which to hunt. You may spot and stalk in your home territory. Other than for turkey, varmints or sneaking up on a feeder at night with thermal, while hunting pigs, we don't. That is not local custom here.


What I will do is take a 55 gallon drum and paint it fluorescent orange and hide it somewhere on our 1,700 acre lease. If you can find it in 3 days, I'll give you $2,000, and pay your gas back. The only caveat is that you have to spot and stalk. No motorized vehicle.

You will probably want to wear brush pants and long sleeves, even if it is 100degrees F,

as just about every plant you will brush up against either pricks, claws

sticks or stings!

Hint, bring a good pair of tweezers and a magnifying glass. Those little tiny clusters of Cactus hairs are hell to get out with fingernails or a pocket knife.

you will want to wear footwear that gives good ankle support.

[Linked Image from hosting.photobucket.com]

I will provide you with a two-way radio to keep on your person while spotting and stalking. There is no cell service, and should you become dehydrated or break a hip or ankle, I'll need to come get you.

Anywho,

Come on down, it will be an experience. I know that the guys that I have entertained in the past that were from different western states told me that having hunted for several days, and enjoyed the hospitality, it changed their whole view of the way we hunt here, and each said they would like to come back.

Best,

GWB

Funny how killing is associated with bad, we had hog killing time, time to kill beeves, and every Sunday chicken

I’m sure there are some good ones, I’ve seen a few mostly lower budget hunting shows that we’re decent and more realistic but overall can’t stand ‘em. The over the top high-fives or fist bumps and hooting and hollering is retarded.

What you said.

I think the "harvesters" are akin to the person who goes on a mass shooting rampage. Each finds a way to demean and degrade the things they are killing to make it more palatable, make the people less human, make the animal merely a crop rather than a wild and free thing .. make the death matter less. If the day ever comes that I can't say "I killed .." and own it straight up with no excuses, no rationalization, I damned well better hang up my guns because when that happens I've rationalized becoming the monster.

That's a damn nice offer GW. Very generous.Thanks ! But I'm afraid I have no desire to hunt in Texas. I have plenty of hunting here. Got 13,000 + acres of State forest just up the road and hundreds of thousands more within a half hours drive in any direction. Baiting is illegal here as well as feeding, the State land is heavily forested and deer numbers are comparatively low but I do like to wander. Water isn't a problem, it's everywhere. In fact the ground, trees and everything else is covered with it in it's frozen white form. There is no cell service where I hunt here either. If you get lost or fall and break something you better be able to get a fire going or you're likely going to freeze. I might die of thirst or heat stroke there. I never could stand hot weather nor am I fond of thorns.
