Anything more than a bow is a spoof of the word hunting.
This is true and even a bow is a spoof if used from a blind or tree stand.
The
only way to hunt nowdays is to have 3+ people share one gun and several
bottles
of whiskey while they walk the woods. That way any animal they kill deserved
to
die, and there is a real risk to the hunters.
Hereabouts, we don't hunt - we harvest. If a deer wanders by my porch and my
freezer is low I kill it - but I don't call that hunting. And once a year the
neighbors have a drive to thin out the excess. That's not hunting either.
Agreed. If I want to shoot something, I use a spotlight and a scope
sighted rifle. Wandering about looking for victims during the daylight
is a waste of my time.
Same logic for fishing. Why waste time with a hook when you can use a
gillnet and have a few drinks while waiting for the fish to commit
suicide?
