Why do some obsess over those who want to use a long bow or a compound or a crossbow? Why do they obsess over what caliber gun others are using?Why do they obsess over food plots or corn or baiting in general? Why do yall obsess on the way people choose to hunt?

Well I'm a better hunter than anyone I have ever met but I'm modest about it and can overlook other hunter shortcomings.

If you watch the Ted Nugent Video “why did you shoot that buck” he pretty much hits the nail on the head. He says they are a “Lunatic Fringe of Supremacism”.

He also gives the antidote, tell them when it comes to other people’s choices “Shut Up!”

Things that work on these folks to possibly cause them to fight, an ulcer, have a crappy day, or cardiac arrest:

Silence

I didn’t open the subject to debate

Shut Up

Laugh at them

Mimic them in a stupid tone

If I want your opinion, I’ll give it to ya

If I wanted your commentary I’ll subscribe to your newsletter

Most people suck when it comes to others success. Hunting brings out the worst in people because most people are jealous of others killing deer. Many on this site hate the fact that others have good land, nice stuff, and tend to shoot lots of good deer. It is really a shame.

You are correct my friend. If we celebrated our friends accomplishments like we do our own, we would sure get to do alot more celebrating and alot less hating on one another. Just think about that concept for a little bit. Yes it takes some getting used to but it is a better way.

I agree love is a better way but these fringe lunatics are damaged, ain’t gonna change, and derive their energy from acting this way. They’ll act this way to the store clerk, waitress, gun counter person, spouses, children, and so forth.

Its because absolutely nothing is greater than themselves.

Either learn to use them to your advantage, or stay away from them.

Killing a deer has become secondary for me. I know some folks don't like to hear that but it's the truth for me. It's a great way for me to get away from work and relax. If I get a deer, it's a bonus.

Truth and the finger that I am pointing at is at me. Last year, the guy that hunts with me shot and killed a pretty nice buck. I heard him shoot then received a text saying “got him “. For a brief moment I was envious instead of happy for him. I never said anything about my initial thought but I am not happy it.

That was just a human response but I think you handled it properly. We dont have to act on every thought that runs through our heads.

Because it's the most fundamental and universal trait of human nature. In complete honesty, I'm far more perplexed by the guy who doesn't have contrary opinions (that's a feminine trait, not a "nice guy" trait). The single greatest human trait is self-centeredness...seriously, not trying to preach, but scripture says we are all born sinners, and the practical definition of "sin" is "self centeredness", it's literally in your DNA. Which is why I'm supremely curious of the guy who just loves everybody, and approves every thing, and wants other hunters to kill a deer more than themselves, and so forth. It's not natural. Jordan Petersen says the primary differentiating trait between male and female is "agreeableness". It's literally in the DNA of men to be disagreeable. Not to be an a-hole, but to stand up and call "bullcrap" sometimes. It's a feminine trait to hold hands and sing Kumbaya with eveybody who sees things differently than them. You say things about hunting deer that contradict everything else you say about every other facet of life. I guarantee you 99% of you are angrily against "everybody gets a trophy" in youth sports, but then you say crap like "any deer is a trophy."

Which brings me to another thing I observe (especially on this site) all the time... Y'all are the most opinionated and authoritative bunch of dudes I've ever freakin seen in my life about politics and cultural/social crap (like the Dicks boycott), really y'all are opinionated and authoritative about everything (just read any post on the general forum), but you are suddenly raging granola Libertarians about hunting. You become the softest, most selfless humans who have ever lived when it comes to hunting (especially if it involves youth). It's contradictory, and frankly annoying. You better see the world exactly like I do, and you better vote exactly like I do, and you better drive the same brand truck that I do, and you better do EVERY friggin thing on earth exactly like I do, except deer and how to kill them I suppose.

Lots of the comments above are saying that the person who criticizes a person for shooting a small deer, or using a "lesser" weapon, is actually just jealous because they aren't as good of a hunter. Seriously, that's stupid, did you actually think that through before you said it? In reality the opposite is the truth, which is why the guy who shoots the little buck, with an easy weapon, gets his feelings all rustled up when someone calls "bullcrap" on it. Don't act like it's not true. That makes a heckuva lot better sense. Oh, Ted Nugent is stupid also, because he's the biggest opinionated and authoritative hypocrite who ever sucked a breath on this planet. He's right about most things, I appreciate and agree with 99% of his stances on things like guns and citizens' rights, but then he goes off on this stupid rant about "every deer is a trophy" blah, blah, blah. Bullcrap. Just not true. It's NOT HARD TO KILL A DEER. But it's DAMN hard to kill a big buck, and it's even harder to do it with a harder weapon.

Most folks don't really care how you hunt, or what you kill, or what you shoot it with...at least not enough to publicly criticize you for it, unless it affects THEM. I stand and applaud Eskimo for being the most honest and real person on this website for what he said above....THAT is normal human nature, it's believable. I've been there a dozen times, I'd never let my buddy know I was jealous, but I was. I had a honey hole for years, killed some "okay" bucks from it. Had a buddy who routinely begged to go in there with me (he'd ALWAYS ask, "you got enough room in there for two of us?"). So one day I took him with me, and I did it the selfless way, I put him in the A-1 tree and wished him luck. He killed a 140" deer with a small extra main beam. He even said the deer was behind him walking straight to me (meaning I likely would've killed it had I been selfish like usual and gone alone). If I'm being totally transparent with you fellas, I've held a grudge against him for that (it actually happened twice with the same buddy, in that same season, on that same land). No, I'm not happy for him, I know I should be, but dangit man I put in years of work, hours of scouting, I did ALL the work!!!!!! I deserved that deer!!!! Do I realize how disgusting that sounds? Yes, but it's real. If he just went somewhere on his own, even if we had been together in some random place, I would be happy for him. But in this case it affected me, that's the only reason.

In closing, crossbows are not bowhunting. They are slow, short range guns. grin

I think it is equally as silly that all the doe killers want to chastise people that actually want to spend time in the woods hunting. The challenge of shooting a nice deer and hunting for one is something some of y'all simply can't get your head around. Not everyone wants to blow the nose off the first thing that sticks its head out of the bushes.



But you can.... Because our lax game laws have created an environment where deer hunting is just like squirrel hunting or dove hunting to many hunters.

You have people that want to shoot a nice deer but they can't because the squirrel style hunter blasts everything he sees or he drags his kids up there and they blast everything they see and dares you to say anything and ruin Johnny's "experience" of smoking button bucks like the plague because "everybody gets a trophy" as stated above.

And then those 2 ideologies collide.

And the guy that wants to shoot a nice deer and spend more time hunting and less time shooting ultimately loses the battle in most cases because they can't afford a high dollar club or have trouble finding a club or piece of property where people don't blast everything. Or worse they own land where there are some certified doe killers next door. And they want to improve their property and work their land but it is all for NOTHING. Because of Johnny and his punk Daddy who deserve to shoot whatever they want.

Welcome to Doe Season fellas. Starts Saturday. Enjoy.
