Some of those bucks are insane. Its a bit different than enclosing them, feeding them and allowing them to mature.
But if someone wants to raise livestock and then kill them or allow someone else to kill them for a fee, why should I care? X2 as long as it gets eaten who cares Agree Caveat: I don't "do" facebook, so unable to see more than the log in page entry, so just getting the "drift" from what you fellas have posted. Not sure I'd use facebook as a National 'bellwether" tho. It has to be all about harvesting a resource using legal methods? Because I'd bet most reply'ers, use bird feeders, plant "stuff" that draws birds, butterflies and bees. What about "people" food plots and the many foods that come from other country's that may not produce fruits and veggies using safe methods (herbicides/pesticides)? The list of arguments BOBO posted above I understand, but if it is legal, those arguments become differing opinions among outdoorsmen. Take hunting out of the equation and IMO, they disagree about LO rights, the right to do on and with your property as you see prudent with in legal lines, but even then, you get arguments based on opinion. I admit my thoughts may be different if I had a facebook acct and could force myself to read through it. It’s just differing opinions until it’s qouted as the voice of sportsman, like grizzly bear hunting, hound hunting, CO spring bear/baiting Etc.......

That chic is a knucklehead. Nope, she has social media down to a science. More traffic/interaction she produces via hunters and Anti’s, more money she makes.

Dividing hunters instead of uniting them! The division started when hunters started pushing for separate seasons so they would get an early jump on other hunters. Manufacturers and wildlife agencies smelt the new money and the rush was on. And it hasn't stopped since. Offer just one single season to everyone and you might be surprised at how much division disappears in the hunting community. We found something to agree on! .....so wrong about so much, but spot on here. Either bow hunters should wait til Nov, or rifle hunters should start in Oct. Equal hunting time for all hunters.

Offer just one single season to everyone and you might be surprised at how much division disappears in the hunting community. You can hunt those seasons if you want to so you have nothing to complain about. So if I hunt the way you hunt when you hunt, all is good. You just proved how the division got started. The way I read it, he isn't saying that at all. In fact, I would be willing to bet he doesn't care how, when, or where you hunt. Speaking of proving division, the statement below goes a long way toward keeping the division alive and well. Your disdain for this type of hunting is well documented. From where I sit, you're doing your part to keep it going as much as anyone else. As long as there are enough hunters out there who aren't just feeder watching and sharing their hunting knowledge with the next generation, I'm happy.

Learn to bowhunt or quit whining. You mean like bow hunters did at those first attempts to make crossbows legal? The discussion has made it clear that when it comes to dividing hunters, bow hunting wins first prize.

If you aren’t gun hunting on Oct 1st it’s because you choose not to.
Based on the disdain for food plots and baiting in the comments on that fb page I don’t think seasons bother anyone to a significant extent.

The discussion has made it clear that when it comes to dividing hunters, bow hunting wins first prize. Maybe in the top 3 or 4 (pick your order) *HF vs LF *Baiting *223 *Ethical shot placement *Seasons And I am sure there are others I just don't see people getting all worked up over seasons.

I chose not to accept the States f'd up deer harvest numbers. So now I don't get to rifle hunt in Oct.

That's like saying "if you choose to pay taxes, it's your own fault. Make less money. Make so much less that you don't have to pay taxes".

While the majority of bow hunters are ethical & capable, giving a certain segment of hunters more time than others encourages people to hunt past their capabilities. Too many bow hunters only bow hunt because they get an extra month to hunt. A lot of these people have no business with a bow, & wound a lot of deer with poor shot placements.

Interesting observation that I haven't heard before. Do you have a source with supporting data for this statement?

Your acting like the liberal. Why do YOU have to have a "special" season? You a special snowflake? Your probably watching that Richard Maddow guy on MSNBC right now.

I chose not to accept the States f'd up deer harvest numbers. So now I don't get to rifle hunt in Oct. Yes. Or you could choose to hunt another MLD property that participates. If you can't afford it and it's important to you to gun hunt in Oct. start saving now. AMERICA

When all hunters are up against anti-hunters we are going to have to back anyone legally taking game period! You might not like the way someone else does it, but you're going to have to ask yourself, "was it legal?" If the answer is yes, then you are going to have to support it. Banding together is the only way we will retain our hunting rights. As well as out second amendment rights.
I am not a fan of HF, so I stay out of those discussions, now. It is legal. I am not a fan of able-bodied people hunting with crossbows, but it is legal (I know, didn't used to be) so I do not judge someone that does it. It is legal. Some people probably did not like me shooting two cow elk a minute apart, in September, from 465 yards, and 515 yards. But I made humane clean kills, and it was legal.
And the list goes on.
