[quote=CNC]Where is written in stone about what hunting has to be?? ....{CNC]
Good post and I think you are spot on! There is A LOT of hypocrisy between hunters judging how another person hunts. Hunting is supposed to be fun and that is defined differently by everybody.
Actually, it was not a good post and was not "spot on."
It was silly nonsense for this reason: it has always for generations until now been etched in stone that hunting had to be based on the principle of FAIR CHASE, hence bating via corn piles (deer) and crop seeds like wheat (birds) were banned. The point being to preserve the hunting tradition with a sense of honor and honor code based on fair chase, and to also promote woodsmenship skills.
What woodsmanship skills does it take to sit in a shooting house over a green patch? Could you list them alphabetically and I'll take notes.
Since you consider food plots to be baiting and since hunting over bait is the most important thing in your life, then you should just plant a food plot so you can hunt over "bait." Problem solved.
Nice deflection. But you still didn't address how hunting out of a shooting house in a green patch requires any woodsmanship skill compared to hunting over a corn feeder. But I know the reason you didn't answer it. Because you can't. And baiting isn't the most important thing in my life. For example I would rank it way back behind not being a flaming hypocrite that can't provide any actual logical reasons to support a ridiculously flawed and inconsistent opinion of what constitutes ethical or skilled hunting.

The best index to a person’s character is (a) how he treats people who can’t do him any good, and (b) how he treats people who can’t fight back. - Abigail van Buren
