SNAP SHOT 194 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 As i said at the start of this thread, its not something i'm interested in doing, i haven't watched the vid, as i hate to see an animal suffer, but i'm not gonna slate anyone who wants to experience it, thats their decision, i hold lions and elephants, whales, as truely amazing creatures, as i do deer, but i have no incling to hunt them, whereas i love the thrill of a deer stalk, So i can aliken that those hunting any creature, get the same thrill from hunting whichever animal they choose.. This is a hunting forum, And we should be able to debate our point of view freely, i'm no anti believe me, But should we really resort to looking for someone to throw on the pire.....???? yours in hunting....

danw 1,748 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 If any one is interested in hunting big game then I would recommend reading some of John Pondoro Taylors books all of the game he took was completely wild yet most of his shots where sub 15 yards even on confirmed man eating lion he was probably considered one of the most knowledgeable big game hunters to ever live. a bit too steep for me but thanks for the heads up , i will have to have a look around http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PONDORO-Ivory-Hunter-John-Taylor-1955-1stEd-1stPrinting-/260612899230?cmd=ViewItem&pt=US_Nonfiction_Book&hash=item3cadbd419e i noticed you said sub 15 yards , you got to take your hats off to them they had some balls This has to be one of the best reads on hunting wild big game. http://www.amazon.com/Maneaters-Marauders-John-Taylor/dp/1571573119 On one ocasion taylor baits a live catch trap with himself to kill a maneater,big balls indeed Different times and different thinking maybe but we should all share a common ideology no mater what our prey. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hannah4181 260 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 well im truly shocked that people on this site cannot stand side by side by other peoples form of hunting , just because your fat bullx wouldnt stand a chance on it you have to knock people using (what is legal in that country) different forms of weapons. be it guns / bows / snares that lion may of been breed to be hunted , but so are pheasants partridge etc.. most of you cant see past the M25 , maybe you should get out in the big wide world and see a bit. i dont like cock fighting but it wouldnt stop me watching a match in a country where it is legal as traditions / cultures intrest me and i have NO right to judge others. also bullfighting ( bred to fight in spains national sport ffs ) we had a tradition called fox hunting and also badger hunting , even had live pigeon decoys once (which i think has no place now due to clays) but have all been taken away and just seems a few are very bitter. each to there own 'in any form of fieldsport they do' i say I think i love you too.

bigbailey 90 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 Just my opinion but I think game should only be killed for either food or pest control to preserve other species. I kill to put food on my plate for me it makes me appreciate my food and appreciate where it comes from more than just buying something off the shelf. That sort of thing is just for some idiot to get a picture with. Not for me just killed for the fun. I hunt for trophy deer, elk , lion , bear ect... Taking pictures along the way ... Mounting the horns and tanning the hides And not a shred of meat goe's to waste.... Just as all the "trophy" hunters I know.... Your point is that what you do is so much more superior and ethical than the way other people hunt... You "feel" a need to justify your methods by claiming nutrition and a sense self reliance - and now you "feel" entitled by this to point your booger tipped dirty finger at another hunter in a blamefull manner... This dosn't wash mate.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OLPL5p0fMg I wonder how ferret tastes on the grill? Well i obviously hit a sore spot. Im sorry that my point of view was so offensive to you. The next rabbit i kill for the pot ill make sure i get a picture to show it off. have a drink on me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
