What up guys?
Some of you know and seen some of my game. I'll dig around for some pics.
@GreatwhiteNorth If someone gets mad at a trophy kill then I explain it to them logically.
If it is a trophy it is a larger animal, more meat. Its at the end of its prime, plenty of time to have bred and passed genetics on.
Some say trophy hunting. I say it is management hunting.
It is legal to hunt deer over a feeder or plot here. We set one up. A buddy of mine said it wasn't fair.
I told him it was. Don't get me wrong, I love a good stalk hunt and being fair to the animal. The reason we decided to hunt like that here is to be able to select what we kill and actually grow bigger and better numbers of deer.
I also want to say something about this. Big game in Africa. Yea, probably won't eat a lion and I wouldn't kill one. On the other hand those are some of the poorest countries in the world. The ones that allow legal hunting take that money and hire game officers and actually have better animal populations.
I'm OK with them letting some rich guys kill a few to protect the rest.
For those that don't know you can thank your federal parks to a hunter. Private hunting clubs do more for animals than any animal rights groups. Private hunting groups have bought millions of acres worldwide to set up game reserves.
In the USA hunters pay for fish and game officers.
If it were not for hunters animals would be worse off.
I also feed my family with what I hunt and I strive for a quick humane kill.
Sorry for the rant.
