Generally, I don't approve of hunting and have never actually gone. I think a person should not use all that fancy tech to hunt. Hands, a knife, maybe even a rock should be it. So, maybe I shouldn't be the one to start a thread on the topic.
But, what does qualify me for starting this discussion on hunting is having a link to
the greatest man to ever stalk the earth: http://www.huntingwithspears.com/
Read. Venture through the site. Find comfort in the fact that Gene Morris has more little white soldiers in his balls than JesusGod does. Warm yourself in the testosterone-driven glow of Ted Nugent's endorsement of Gene Morris' Book: Hunting With Spears.

It is a dream of mine.
I hunt with a fucking lever-action winchester with iron sights.
My step-dad hunts with a Springfield 30-06 with iron peep-sights.
Shit aint fancy.
Also, fun fact; squirrels will do a double-backflip if you shoot them from like five feet away with a 12 gauge.
Also, what caliber is your Winchester, Meister?
On what level do you not "approve" of hunting? Do you not eat burgers? I mean, how can you be less approving of competing with a wild animal (yes, it's stacked. It's still a competition) and hunting your own food than slaughtering cattle that have been raised in pens? Sorry to go all Ted Nugent there, but a lot of people are what I call "dishonest carnivores" in that they think hunting is horrible, but have no problem wolfing down a cheeseburger.
Having some trouble getting the scope adjusted to me, probably have to slide it back some.
I'm not even talking about guns. :P

Well alright!
I don't regularly go hunting for anything aside pheasant and quail. I use a Remington 870 Express. Yeah, it's heavy, but I'm a really big guy so it's okay for me.
At least a deer could frolic about in the woods before getting killed, whereas a cow in a factory farm leads a pretty short, shitty life.
Yeah, it terrifies me that I kind of start to understand him when he talks about the meat industry and how horrible it is, because the man is fucking insane.
i grew up vegetarian and still heartily enjoy many faux meats way more than their (mostly pork) counterparts
I'm not personally a vegetable, no.

I have no problem with people being against killing animals for food.
The guy gives outdoorsmen a bad name, he's reckless and a complete arrogant asshole. I was actually approached to sponsor his television show (my company produces products for hunters, among other markets) and asked my boss what he thought. He said "over my cold, dead body will that cocksucker get any cash from me."
I used to hunt pheasant rather often and am trying to get back into it. I'm a lot bigger than when I was 12 and first started shooting my little 20ga SKB 585 but I'll never upgrade. I like the challenge and I love the gun.

yeah but who gives a shit about cows, I mean come on.
ITT we anger Kali, the 8-armed destroyer of worlds.
first of all, hunters don't shoot animals in the face
second of all, trophy hunting is minuscule compared to the people who actually hunt for food
STAB!

I don't know if it's Americans or humans in general, but I see way too much of the 'out of sight, out of mind' way of thinking.
edit: and it appears I've become an accessory to murder.
COUNTER-STAB!
True but there's not just trophy hunting there's varminting which I don't have a problem with either.

I know you don't shoot animals in the face (or at least not often), I was just making a point. And since I'm from a terrible place, there are a lot of assholes who shoot for fun. They're still the minority, but it doesn't make it right.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!

the stories i hear make the whole practice a little hard to respect. but, i have faith that SE++ is not like that. so, i apologize for generalizing.
I use a 870 Super Mag. Talk about a sore shoulder when you're hunting dove. 3 1/2 inch shells can leave some bruises.
