ksdeerhunter03 Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 I think if you are getting paid to hunt, and only hunt, then you can be a pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kscumminsdriver Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Re: Professional hunter and an amateur hunter in deference to anyone on the board, I think a 'professional' hunter is someone who gets reimbursed for hunting be it through a paycheck or through free equipment.... I'm not talking about a pro-shop giving you a dozen arrows... more like getting a new bow, the latest camo, blinds, stands and the like in exchange for some sort of publicity or advertising.

Mountaineer Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Re: Professional hunter and an amateur hunter My understanding would be if you make your living by hunting, then you're a professional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adjam5 Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Re: Professional hunter and an amateur hunter I always thought if you wear the same clothes and shoot the same bow or gun and use ALL the products as the professionals do, then you were a pro yourself I have to agree, if you are some way shape or form getting anything from any sponser or manufacturer in order for them to promote the product(s), that would constitute a professional. Now I think most of us would call a guy who hunts and can't make shots consistently a amatuer...right? Or some other choice words I'm sure....
