[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 528882, member: 35183"] Wow ! I will admit that I didn't read all the rules, but I wasn't expecting a "no ethics" rule. Moderator, feel free to delete the thread. I don't want to discuss whether we should hunt or not, nor debate the necessity of killing, but the concept of a humane death was something which supposedly differentiated gentlemen from savages. I have personally been disappointed with the footage on the Sportsman channel, since I don't think it improves the image of hunters in the eye of the non hunting public. I can see however, how the role of game fences on private land changes the situation, since there is basically no way that a wounded animal is going to get onto someone else's land and result in a trespass condition. But the price associated with that privilege (over $1000 and up) would result in a lot fewer people being out there hunting and consequent loss of population control. So far, there are enough people who can afford the flight to South Africa and the trophy fees that so far demand still exceeds supply and the prices remain high. [/QUOTE]
