Help Support Long Range Hunting Forum
I agree, Clem. I've made my philosophy known on this in other threads - I'm tired of the virtue signaling about how qualified someone is to take longer shots, how some people have no business doing it, etc., blah....blah....blah. We've all gotta make up our own minds on our capabilities and live with it when we mess up. Here's the thing, IMHO - A lot of guys are on this forum because they are fascinated with the concept of Long Range Hunting. They want to try it, explore their capabilities, and yes, sometimes push the envelope to build their confidence. Sanctimonious, "elite" pontificators who criticize someone for how long they shoot, what caliber they use, etc., do the sport a disservice because they dissuade people from exploring their capabilities. All that said, I totally get the downside. We have to accept the risks and learn from our mistakes.

@John@redmt i realize that we are all products of our environment and you are from California - what are you doing on this forum? You have obviously never been hunting before, why even comment?

Wow! It's pretty obvious that when somebody ( me) posts a reply that you don't agree with that the Neanderthal mentality surfaces. When you can't or don't have the mentality to engage in an intelligent discussion or opinion, that you resort to childish unfounded insults.

That's not thrown out it's pointed out
That's something that should not be shown on a site like this

Hey Bubba, there's a huge difference between killing an animal with a clean single shot that has the expectancy of actually killing and taking multiple, inaccurate shots. I've probably killed more animals than you've ever seen but that's not the point. The point is that his shots were way off the mark and should never have been taken.

Sometimes the drooling knuckle draggers can't see past the last beer can on the good ol boys Saturday night hunt.

Yes the shot was off the mark a bit but it was still a killing shot. Also, if I recall the video correctly he did hit the pig with every shot while it was running right to left at 30+ mph AT NIGHT, trying to dispatch it quickly which he did. And, if your statement that you've killed more animals then the other poster has ever seen, and you never had to take a follow up shot I'd be the first one to call that an untruth.

You are correct. In fact I always take a follow up shot. Always. Killing tasty animals is a great pastime for some and a way of life for others. Loading up an animal with lead, or copper, is just a waste of a life. Killing cleanly and quickly produces the best meat. I don't anybody here that actually hunts for food will disagree with that.

I'm going to be straight forward and honest here. I belong to a lot of hunting and shooting sites. And they all have their share of braggarts which is par for the course. Now don't get me wrong, I like this site, and I've learned a great deal in the short time I've been here. But there are, IMO, some members that really don't belong here. I'm not going to name names. But big egos, holier then thou attitudes and aggravated verbal attacks on other member is not only sad but its also against the rules.
I don't mind disagreement but I can't abide name calling and outright lying. I believe the moderators should begin taking a closer look at some of these posts and begin issuing warnings to the members. Remember a very famous person told us we should love one another as we love our selves.
