@kevmc209 5 лет назад

REAL hunters!!

@ron.hertzberg 4 года назад

Anybody who doesn't agree with this clearly has never Hunted because Hunters are the biggest conservationists that I've ever met they care more about the environment in the animals and it's all about the procurement of meat it's an understanding that they're taking a life for food . I don't think I've ever met a hunter that was just a killer

@guitarguru.3572 4 года назад

People that argue against hunting are ignorant. These keyboard warriors that want to end hunting have never had a true intimate moment with nature. I’d be willing to bet that a lot of them have never set foot in the depths of the woods. We respect the lives we take and are grateful for the sacrifice.

I was hunting a 190" deer for 3 years. Tons of pics. Never saw him until last year. Finally had him at 21 yds last year with absolutely no shot. 4 days later he got taken out by a car. Took the wind right out of my sails. It sucks but it happens. You still ended up with a great deer, so congrats.

Way to go, even if was a smaller buck, we as hunters as you said, conservationist, have a duty to put cripples out of their misery! In some cases it means burning your buck tag, in my case I was issued another tag by the warden. Great story and footage, thanks!

There isn't an animal rights activist in the world that cares for deer the way that a true hunter does. It's a hell of a thing. I can't tell you how many times I've sat there and thought about the depths of ending a life with my bow. Hunting is one of the most respectful ways you can honor wildlife. EVERY being on this earth must take life in order to live. It's the respect for the animals that set us apart. Watching this video, I felt every emotion that this guy was going through.

@audribauer8077 4 года назад

@eldie3d 4 года назад

I'm guessing that the one you shot with the broken jaw is the one that possibly killed Megatron. Two bucks fighting over does... It's very rare that one will die and the other will walk away with no injuries. The feud is over for now - until two more young bucks compete over does... Broken jaw and Megatron were legends... Thanks for showing that you care!

Granted, i have never been hunting. It's something i would love to try though. I tip my hat to this man. 3 years, he dedicated his life to find this buck. And after all that time, to see it gored and laying dead by the pond he built. That is down right heart breaking.
