But for those sort of people watching the microscope, nothing you do will be satisfactory. You're still cold blooded killers who should act like every one else and buy the meat the magically and humanely appears (yeah right) at the supermarket.
So at a certain point, you gotta say, fuck it, and just do what is reasonable. reply]

Not everyone watching is an anti-hunter. Some are undecided, others may even be former hunters themselves. The bottom line is that most all of them can vote. Show them enough unethical crap, during hunting season, and you could very well lose your right to hunt.
We lost the Buffalo hunt for many years, here in Montana, because the antis made a field day, over what a few slob hunters may have been doing. We're slowly getting that back. Showing the right kind of image when afield is vital if our sport is going to survive....Steve1

There are many who hunt with .50 BMG rifles, including Eskimos and Native Americans, as well as other more "familiar" hunters.
There is a husband and wife team in PA that hunts white tail deer and elk with them.
They usually shoot at over 1200 meters and have never had an animal not drop dead in its tracks.

Those animals have families, too, you know. Think of the children.

Jim Zumbo apologizes:
It's good that he has seen the error of his ways. Thanks to Ted Nugent for setting him straight.
"They say that hindsight is always 20-20. In my case, hindsight has been a hard teacher, like the father teaching the son a lesson about life in the wood shed.Full letter: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=260101
I was wrong when I recently suggested that wildlife agencies should ban semiautomatic firearms I erroneously called “assault rifles” for hunting. I insulted legions of my fellow gun owners in the process by calling them “terrorist rifles.” I can never apologize enough for having worn blinders when I should have been wearing bifocals..."

"I’m going to devote every ounce of my energy to this battle. I will remind my fellow hunters that we are first, gun owners. Whether we like it or not, our former apathy and prejudices may place that which we love, hunting, in jeopardy. I will educate fellow outdoorsmen who mistakenly think like I talked, even if I have to visit every hunting camp and climb into every duck blind and deer stand in this country to get it done. I was wrong, and I’m going to make it right."

I think he is learning at that his mistake was not putting his foot in his mouth, but speaking what was in his heart, and that was not the preservation of the second amendment.

Does anyone hunt with a 50? Aren't those things heavy as hell? And too expensive to leave out in the elements for a long trip?
