Now I have heard it all.No such thing as fair chase. An animal has to die or a hunter goes home empty handed. Nothing fair about those prospects. We want it to be as fast and as painless as possible. That's all that matters.
There is just killing or not killing. Trying to sugar cost it with some victorian ideal is just foolishness and really just facilitates ending hunting. Fairness is a very socialist ideal and wholly subjective which is why there is so much turmoil attempting to satisfy everyone with foolish and arbitrary notions just gets the hornets nest all stirred up.
Stick to the basics. Kill an animal. Enjoy the natural surroundings but don't suggest a moral high ground when at the end of the day an animal is dying.
The only moral high grounds that are not arbitrary are...did you kill it quickly or not? Did you follow the laws?
Trying to suggest killing an animal one way or another is just personal preference. Trying to force your preference on someone else via threat of law is just tyrannical. The origin of national law was not designed to be used this way... point of fact is we were warned against letting it get this way for the very reason that people's annoyances begin leading them on personal crusades to use the threat of law to shift their preference.
That is the beginning of the end of liberty and if you can't connect those dots then so long to the foundation of this nation.
This isn't just about how animals should or shouldn't be hunted, that necessary point was crossed when seasons and tag limits were set. This is how do we handle the annoyances of our neighbors at this point. Do you live and let live or do you go on a crusade demanding everyone hunt the way you do?
So far I am seeing government over reach empowering state government to dicktate more and more.
If you want to see increased herds start your raindance, or fast and pray or whatever gets your juju going. Cause until this drought cycle ends and a real moisture regime kicks in there just isn't enough natural resources for domestic and wild animals to thrive to numbers beyond what we are seeing. We have almost 30yrs of proof and less than half of that with the tech that you claim is making hunting worse
That’s your selling point? It won’t sell sorry.
Not with me and definitely not with the wildlife board.
You come on here think you have it all figured out and you clearly don’t.
We have discussed all what you have said. You never once brought up predator control unless I missed it threw all of your books you keep writing.
Remember I’m the annoying one and I will continue to be.
I think the DWR is doing a great job for what they’re dealing with. Do I agree with all of them no. But I definitely don’t agree your outlook on it.
Good day
