Just watched a man on tv get so excited he was trembling that he killed a buck with the deer's mouth in a corn pile. I wonder how he would react if he actually killed one sportsmanlike?

Well... I wouldn't ever do that myself, but sportsmanlike can mean different things to different people...

I wonder how many guys on this forum have killed a deer with a spear or an atlatl or even an old fashioned long bow?

I have no problem with killing one in a freshly picked corn field.
If its legal where the guy killed it Reb whats your problem ? Some guys couldnt go into the woods due to health or skill but still want to hunt.Some consider a green field the same as a pile of corn. We all need to just do our own thing and let others do the best they can, as long as they arent a healthy guy calling an xbow archery ! LOL Seriously I dont see the need to revert to a savage and use a spear or axe. I hunt for pleasure , do what you prefer
and as long as Im not breaking the law leave me alone.

If he was truly so excited he was "trembling", then what more do you want from the guy? As long as you're legal, shoot what makes you happy. Clearly thatdeermade that guy happy.

Folks can do what they want but don't call it hunting. It's not. Call it shooting. If someone wants to shoot a deer in a corn pile and its legal, fine. But don't lump shooting something in with the sport of hunting. Two different things.

Bingo.

I don't necessarily have a problem with it other than I don't think it is healthy for the sport. But I cant imagine how one would not be more excited the traditional way. I rifle hunt but can promise you I get more excited when I get one with my bow.

Yep, and if I ever get off my ass and start practicing with my old recurve I may lose my chit if I ever kill one with it. Doe, button, 293-point ... won't matter.

I do not consider deer hunting a sport for me. It is a way of life that runs deep in my veins. Way more than a sport to me.

I'll take it a step further and say what fun is it to sit in a tree trying to hide from them? The only fair way to hunt them is one on one on the ground and slippin. My grandmother can sit in a tree and shoot one with a rifle. popcorn

I bet the Indians would say they same stuff about us if they saw us sitting in a steel ladder stand with a padded seat and tapping on an I phone while looking over a lushly expensive greenfield.

Im with Rebel, I love climbing a tree and have no desire to kill one sitting in a house. Its just that hunting is different to each of us, it is a way of life. Some could never find a good tree and climb, they never learned how. The point is do what you enjoy and live the outdoors life. For me being up a tree and killing one with my bow is the ultimate.I do gun hunt too, but by far prefer my Mathews in my hand. To me getting a deer within 20 yds is the
true nature of hunting.

It's all in the personal experience. I get what the OP is saying though. I personally get more shook up from taking a doe on public land than I have from killing bucks in MO over ag fields. Doesn't mean I didn't enjoy the hunt, it just wasn't as rewarding as when you out smart the deer and other hunters on public ground, to me. Heck my personal experience is predicated more on the individual season most times. Years I havent had the time to hunt as much as I'd like, the reward is just getting to go out in the woods, killing one is icing on the cake at that point.

Killing one in front of dogs has been one of the most exciting ways of hunting I've ever experienced, but some would say it isn't sporting. I enjoyed the heck out of it and hope that one day I can do it again. But if some have their way no one would be able to dog hunt. We as hunters need to look at the big picture and work to preserve all aspects of the sport, less we find ourselves slowly losing all hunting because the anti-hunters have one agenda and they don't differentiate the nuances of our sport.

Corn field, green field, bag of corn, mineral lick, acorns, it is all the same an attractant to bring the deer close enough for a shot. Congrats to the hunter on his kill!!!!!

I still get tore up setting in a tree and a doe walks out. Get to breathing hard and heart rate jumps. If I every quit doing that I think I'll quit hunting.

Could you please define the difference between "shooting" and "hunting"?

Some say its unethical to hunt over corn, some say its unethical to hunt from a shooting house, some say its unethical to run deer with dogs, some say its unethical to shoot a deer with a rifle, but when it comes to the taking of game, the only things that are unethical are those methods that are illegal. Period.

Indians hunted both over corn and at night.

Unethical bastards.

Ok, I'll play.

My definition which is not the definition of everyone, and that's fine.

Hunting: to give effort and participate in the active pursuit of a game animal with the intent to harvest said animal.

Shooting: to not participate and/or give nothing in the pursuit of a game animal, other than being the one to pull the trigger.
