My Public Service Announcement

[Sturgis Sledder]

WTF !?! I just saw Joe Hunter at the gas station with his pickup loaded down and his pop-up camper. Lo and behold he had 5 carcasses tied down in the bed of the pickup. Seeing that is like reading the next thread titled "Which pipe is the loudest?" When you go out hunting and harvest your game, PLEASE PLEASE cover the animal so every mommy and daddy with their kid in the back driving down the road don't get talking about how "mean" hunting is and trying to shut down hunting.

 

[xrated]

huh....every deer season in MN I get wunder lust and talk about how you used to see deer strapped on top of the family car. Kinda miss that now that everyone has trucks....course I miss watching everyone smoke and squeal their tires at the boat ramp too.

 

[Interceptor]

Yup - its hard to convince the city folk that hunters are some of the best conservationists out there when they have several sets of giant bull antlers tied on top of the truck through town.

[justadude]

[SAWYER]

[Blu Du]

Never been into hunting and don't really get it. Every time I see someone with their kill poking out of the back of the truck I can't help but go check it out and get the story.

Most hunters are the nicest guys and will take the time to share the tale with a perfect stranger. I thinks its pretty cool!



Next you'll be asking us to cover our sleds on the way to the hills so we don't upset the granola eaters on the way to the Mtns?

 

[TBWdracula2003]

i believe that avid hunters are the best conservationists out there. they know which to select and harvest and they fill there freezers doing it

 

[Sturgis Sledder]

I agree that hunters are the best stewards and do it myself, BUT tuduzzle it's not like covering your sled it's like not putting on the loudest pipe. Most non-hunters aren't anti hunting but don't want to see Bambi on your hood.

 

[tudizzle]

point taken

 

[powdersledder]

I am a hunter that hunts for meat, not trophies. That is why I will be bringing a camera with me this year, If I see a trophy buck I will snap a picture and hope he spreads his genes making more big bucks, besides big old bucks aren't as tasty as the young does.

But if I do end up getting a nice sized buck, hell ya I'm gonna roll through the countryside with the rack sticking out of the back of my truck!

We were out on lake shasta, early sept, lake was barren as the season was over.
It was still warm, and we were all wakeboarding. We were taking a break and watching some deer along the bank from our boat, and along comes 3 hillbillys in a boat. They pull right up beside us, take their rifle out and start sighting the deer. Mind you I'm on my boat with 2 of my buds, all our wifes, and and 2 13 year old girls.
Thankfully they didn't shoot, as it would have been trama for the girls.
Hide the kills.

In Central WA they shoot bambi right on your front lawn and gut him there too.

Only in America can you be politicaly incorrect. Swampy

 

[gutterlicker]

I harvest mushrooms.

 

[swampwater]

So do I but I can't get them to stay on my fender so I can parade them around town. Swampy

 

[Freak]

who hasnt seen some idiot who took the head of an animal that he shot road hunting and mounted it on the front bumper of his station wagon.... I dont really care either way but its just plain stupid to display animals if you dont want antihunters fired up. Its kinda like coming up on some cross country skiers on a trail and blasting by them with your PSI modblasters blaring, stupid. When I roll up on cross country skiers I slow way down and keep the volume as low as possible, and then give a polite wave as I go by even though I know they hate me and I cant stand them. Its always better to not give them bulletin board material.
