Hemmingway quoted by Adrien Brody in "Predators"
“Certainly there is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never really care for anything else thereafter.”

I used to hunt deer and duck when I was in my early twenties but after having worked as a bail bondsman/ bounty hunter in New Orleans, I can say that once I started hunting people for money, hunting animals seemed to be easy. Deer can be lured to a spot with corn or salt and good decoys work well on ducks. People on the other hand.... well let's just say they're a little smarter about being lured in. And they fight back.

We make fun of guys that kill deer "with an apple in their mouths".

Stalking is where it's at.

Becoming one with the wind...

EDIT: That's why we are at the top of the food chain.

EDIT2: "Harvesting" and "hunting" are two different things.

I'm not going to get anywhere with you.

P.M. me for my phone # and I'll talk this story all day long.

Hell, come on up to fish camp next month and I'll show it to you in person.

Free room, food and drinks if you ink my dog's portrait on my shoulder.

 :salute

 :D

no i am stubborn, i love animals, don't get me wrong i have no issue with hunting for food, or to directly save a human life, take for instance that scum that let out all his tigers and lions....i understand the need to put those animals down, i just hated that they had to.

Seriously, the predator situation is heavy up here.

I'm not a jerk, killer. It's just the way it is.

I'm not into the tone of this debate. As for points of discussion...

Wolves are like a gang of Crips or Bloods. Voracious predators that decimate the population of all other animals. Where you have wolves other populations are thinned down to basic replenishment levels, no more. A simple fact is there are currently more deer, elk and antelope then at any time ever. With man as manager these animal thrive. With wolf as manager, decimated.

It is pretty to have wolves but with a massive tradeoff.

When I was working for a bond agency, we had 6 months to get them back in court or back in jail. The first 4 months we tried to get them to come into the office, walk over to court, and get another date. The last 2 months we actively hunted them, going to their G/Fs house, their job (if they had one), and just generally trying to catch them wherever we could. They knew we were looking for them to put back in jail, so anything that sounded to good to be true to them they avoided like it was a trap (which it was). I'm not saying we caught everybody we set after, but we had a pretty good percentage.  

So saying they won Superbowl Tickets probably wouldn't work as well as for us as it does for the police.

Did you ever go DTBH and have your big boobed woman scream at them until they gave up from the annoying screaming?

Don't think is was actually super bowl tickets, just only SEC tickets.  They funneled them into a room where it was 10 vs 1 and they left peacefully.  One guy did ask.."I get no tickets"?.

Anybody who shows up to nab a wanted fugitive with mace and paintball guns is just asking to get shot. I think those "reality" shows are scripted for TV ratings and nothing else.

By the way, at the time I carried a .357 and a bad attitude.    :D

Yes Puppet, they are "our" deer.

When you end up at the top of the food chain, the world is yours.

Of course diptards like you wouldn't know anything about proper stewardship. Except Flench, I miss him.
is everyone where you live as ignorant as you? before your european redneck ancestors crossed the creek, spread like a disease and ravaged the land, everything you claim ownership to existed in harmony. humans didn't attempt to posesses everything they could see.

anyone who talks about eradicating an animal species hasn't got a single clue about "proper stewardship". the wildlife doesn't belong to you or anyone you will ever meet.
