Yep, the guy is an idiot, but you just never know nowadays about people or what they will be willing to do.

There was a post in the lounge I think about 3 or 4 years ago asking how much would it cost for you to give up your hunting rights. Was kind of interesting to see some of the perspectives.

I don't know if he is an idiot.

Just think for a minute. What would you sacrifice for your dream hunting trip. If some stupid rich PETA freak wants to pay for me to hunt in Alaska next year, I'll take his money. I would still go to hunting camp and have fun. I would probably go out and film my buddies hunting with a big smile on my face because I am going to Alaska next year courtesy of PETA.

Re: How much would you pay to NOT hunt?

Idiot??? I don't think so. Actually, I would say he is pretty smart. I would put a reserve that would give me a great hunt of a lifetime. If some idiot would pay that, sure I would give up hunting for a year. No problem. I am pretty much giving up hunting this year as I can't get a big game tag till next year. So what? It's only a year, and if I can get a super hunt out of it, I am there. I would do it for $15K. I would be at the Inn of the Mountain Gods next year for sure.

I think the guy is brilliant. He's making a point about the antis out there. Notice there are NO bids. Some of you have missed the point he's trying to make. He's taunting the antis to put there money where there mouth is. I love it. I'd consider it seriously for the right price. I can still go to the range, watch football, get caught up on the honey do's, book a dream hunt for the following season, whats a year anyways? To you young pups it seems like a long time to us geezers it's not long at all.

Hey...did you just call me a geezer? grin.gif I thought so.

Yeah, an all expense paid hunting trip or a new truck sounds like it would be worth a year off to me...LOL grin.gif

OK, so he is a genius who just cannot spell lol crazy.gifgrin.gif.

While I do see a bit of humor in this, kind of think at the same time some non hunters who see this might not understand that he is taunting antis, but might get a bit of a false impression.

You can't put a price on my hunting. I treasure it to much and could never give it up or forget it!

I feel the same way...i might hold off on the killing, for a certain price, but there's no way I wouldn't be out there huntin' w/at least a camera! it'd have to be a pretty lg. sum of money to keep me from taking my bow/gun too.

Yeah he's not an idiot at all. Like others said: just film your buddies for one year and take the extra money to go to Canada or Alaska for a hunt of a lifetime.

Maybe it was a hoax but don't you guys remember that guy who put up a website and said that if he didn't get so much money(I think it was like 20G) he would eat his pet rabbit. He actually got quite a bit of money. I'll try to search for it but it was like a year or so since I last saw it.
