[QUOTE="Wild Bill G, post: 1340539, member: 96281"] I joined this group to learn more about LRH and I am learning alot. Sadly there will always be people who see or read something and say that is easy. They go out lets stick to hunting in my example and buy a bow or rifle practice for a week and they are good to go. Now some of these guys quickly learn they need way more practice and do. Alot quit this gig was tougher then it looked I'm out of here. Then there are the ones we need to rein in that continue on with their one week of practice made me a pro attitude. These are the people that hurt our sport. They are the ones the bunny huggers use to depict all hunters. Now we all know they are a very small portion of us. The hard thing is reaching these people because they already know everything. They also become easily offended and usualy leave in a huff. These people are scary to meet in the woods because they are usualy walking accidents looking for a place to happen. As an example years ago I was out Elk hunting and met this guy on a trail we talked a bit. Somehow we got talking about reloading He told me how he exceeded loads in the manuals by 3 or 4 grains to get more velocity out of his rifle. As I walked away all I could think was I would not want to be around when he is shooting. Somehow these kinds of people seem to survive and carry on but it makes the rest of us look bad. I think LRH is great but there will always be variables in people we can not control. Hopefuly the ones that are not serious about this will weed themselves out. [/QUOTE]
