Is NOT the goal of the hunter to find something to SHOOT??????????

In the end process, all HUNTERS are SHOOTERS, even Photographers, they hunt to find the best picture to SHOOT!!

Yep. I always figured the hunt was finding the correct and proper critter that I was hunting. Once found the shoot began and if done properly the critter is quickly dispatched once a properly placed shot can be taken.

If the shoot is properly accomplished the hunt is considered successful.

That said, if the flora and fauna are thoroughly enjoyed the hunt can still be considered successful even though no critter is successfully shot...

The shut the fuck up, you insufferable, decrepit old man. If your reading comprehension wasn't that of a tick, you would have read that in my original post that we KNEW what and where we were going. I'm betting your sorry geriatric ass wouldn't have made it through day one even and Broadmoutn. And BTW, moron, his names is Rulon JONES. FOAD.

I can't believe we're keeping this thread at the top of the forum. Can we all agree to kill this thread?

Killing it would be fine, but that does not make the issue go away.

The issue concerns Personal Ethics and Attitudes.

None of us that hunt are FORCED into doing something we do not want to participate in.

Deal is however, some of us have set ourselves up as judge and jury over others, because we believe our Personal Ethics should be observed by EVERYONE.

That is not going to happen.
