njbowhunter27 Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 this is a disgrace they should of just put a leash on this deer. http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=17029761 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnf Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 That reminds me of an episode of "king of the Hill" where Hank takes his son to a place like that and they decide that it's not right to shoot a deer in that situation. Not something I would want to be associated with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnf Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 After watching the entire video I am completely disgusted. I just can't see taking a kid for an experience like that. I would rather my son know the reality of real hunting where the deer actually know that something is wrong when they see a person. That wound was just horrible. That deer suffered more than could be called humane in any way. I can't imagine being proud of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest COACH J. Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 Not something I would be proud of!!! How will that kid ever learn what hunting is all about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearClaw Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 That's more thatn disturbing. I feel sorry for the boy. That's what he has learned that hunting is, just the kill no matter how you do it. He even had the right moves down as he waived his hand in th air. There is no joy in what he just did. I've always thought (and I hope I'm right) that most bowhunters are very ethical and respect the animal they hunt. They choose the hard way to take a deer and the taking of an animal is the culmination of man, many hours of preparation in many areas. It's not easy but rewarding. The action of this boy, or should I say, his 'responsible' parent or adult is disgusting. I have heard someone say and I agree (Baiting, food plots, etc.) if it's legal and your conscience doesn't bother you, the go for it, it's your right to do so. Even if many of us feel that while ti may be legal but not always ethical, it's still that person's choice. But this is just way over the line for me, even if it was 'legal'. Just my opinion.

bfletch7441 Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 Not good man! BTW, does anyone else find that entrance wound a bit large? Something looks fishy to me. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rad_112176 Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 The saddest thing about this all is that this boy will probably teach his kids that this is what hunting is all about. I am sure his father was probably taught the same way. The entrance hole looked a bit large cause the kid shot low and it appeared that it may have hit a bone causing the broadhead to cut as the deer ran. He probably got lucky in this that the deer lost alot of blood whick caused it to die. Some kids never have a chance in life to know the real enjoyments.

mule659 Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 That is pathetic...why not just take him out with a spotlight and a gun to shoot a deer? It would be more of a challenge. I dont understand how people can teach their kids this crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dosse Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Pitiful, they could have at least stayed in the blind and pretended it wasnt tame. Thats down right sad. Why or how could you be proud of that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowtech_archer07 Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 That is wrong in every way imaginable!!!! how could anyone feel comfortable with teaching their kids that kind of ethics? P.S. did anyone notice that the father is wearing a Realtree Road Trips hat?? Terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razortec_hunter Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 oh.......my..........gosh. i have never seen a more disgraceful act toward an animal. what the heck is wrong with them!?!?!? and teaching a child that that is what hinting is?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? that really makes me mad.

woodsman2230 Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 That is unbelievable that someone who calls themselves a hunter would do something like that. How can a self respecting person do that, let alone teach their kid to do it. Disgusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodshed Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 As sad as this is,,, I can only assume that all the hunting on that property is the same. The adults clearly had elaborate permant stands over feeders. That property is hunted regularly. If that one deer is that tame, they probobaly all are. So the adults are most likely shooting deer in similar situations. I don't even know how they would consider that fun. They might as well have the kid shoot it's dog in the family room. That was about the extent of the challenge. Also, to add to their ignorance, they waste alot of money on camo. They don't even need it. That makes them look even more stupid!!

98chevy Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 I was talking to a guy who is a world class bowhunter. They convinced him to go to Texas and hunt this ranch. He said he noticed the deer where crowidng a area pretty well walked down there to a huge corn pile. So he said he wasnt about to shoot a deer over it. So he piled it up and made little trails. Then took his camrea and took pictures of um and see how close they get to him. The pictures are wild. I just dont see the point. Thats as bad as those eltronic hunting over the internet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rem308 Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Very sad that some little kid is learning from an example like that. The little kid is almost as innocent as the deer in this case, the pitiful excuse for a guide is the problem. He needs to come to Southern WV for a lesson or two in fair chase and hunting ethics.

Guest youngBlood Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Wow, that is pathetic. Thankfully I live in a non-baiting state, because I don't know what I would do if I met someone like that face to face. They are NOT hunters.

johnf Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Wow, that is pathetic. Thankfully I live in a non-baiting state, because I don't know what I would do if I met someone like that face to face. They are NOT hunters. Trust me, the feeding of the deer has little to do with that situation. Even fed deer know what a human is and that we are to be avoided. I have had several feeders up and know deer go to them, but have never seen a deer at one during daylight hours. Personally I wouldn't shoot a deer over feed, but in some places if you don't, you may never see a deer. That kind of "hunting" has all the challenge of changing a channel with a remote. It's harder to get my basset hound to stand still then it was to get that deer to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest totalscaf Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 You know guys, this is the kind of stuff that really fuels the anti's. I mean it really sad that this is the way that this child is being taught. Sure hope his parents didn't define this as hunting!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluelund79 Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 No way is my son EVER going to learn like that. It took 5 years before I got to shoot my first deer, and another 10 after that to get my second! He will learn along the way from me the way I learned from my dad. Public Land, no bait, etc...
