I don't hunt deer....in fact, don't kill anything I don't plan on eating. Fish included. But, your view of deer hunting is in line with mine. Something they do here in PA that wouldn't fly in New England is driving deer. All the members of a club fan out through the woods and drive any deer down to the two shooters at the bottom of the drive. Just doesn't seem very sporting to me.
I just have to wonder how much Ted is in control of his hunts. He was on tour when that happened. I imagine him rushing to the hunt site, and getting in position for a shot, and then rushing back to the tour.
pretty much what I was getting at again. Ted's a Celebrity Hunter, not the same as a true outdoorsman. You, from as best as I can tell, are a true outdoorsman. I am but a semi-outdoorsman, spending maybe a week or two at a time outside the comfy confines of home.
I could be wrong, and maybe he's an ass. I just think he's funny sometimes, and always speaks his mind.
yeah, I'll give him the latter. I just strongly disagree with what he says. Especially in regards to the blather he was spouting in Harrisburg. Essentially, he was talking up some 'affordable' semi-auto as something everyone should have to 'keep their family safe'. That, to my mind, Buzz, is nothing short of fear mongering.
And, this nation has far too much fear mongering. I've been a family man for the past 25 years, and NEVER saw any need to be armed for my family to be safe. This nation has become a nation fearful of every unknown, from folks who don't look like you, or believe the same religion, down to fear of viruses(H1N1 anybody?), low-level radiation and on down the line to where they try to scare you over snowstorms headed your way. Scared people are jumpy people, quick to do stupid things. Exactly the types you don't want armed with semi-automatic weapons.
I don't like everything about anybody, so I give some people some slack.
I'm sure lots of people don't like anything about me. Big deal. I still sleep like a baby.
that's 'lack of fear' talking, Buzz. And, that, brother, is where more people's heads ought to be at......
