[QUOTE="chris matthews, post: 33952, member: 66"] I think Dave and Nighthawk are both right- let me explain. Def of tactical-device or technique to gain an objective but typically use in military operations to paraphase both definitions. Tactical does apply to LR hunting because you use devices and/ or techniques to gain an objective ie the 6x6 bull across the meadow bugling his head off. This would be taking the definition in it's simplest form. Whether we like it or not military operations (read sniping) is the hunting of humans, the most dangerous game of all. So in this sense tactical does apply to hunting. Especially with hunters like Dave and myself- our gear and style of hunting reflects military "tactics." However like Nighthawk mentioned the word "tactical" has become synonamous with the military. But you do see the regular hunting shows using catch phrases like "deer tactics" or "tactics for toms." Clear as Alberta muskeg, eh? [/QUOTE]
