My entire family goes hunting. Even my 17 year old sister. I'm probably not going to go hunting this year... I haven't for a few years. We have 3 farms we hunt on... 2 are 70 acres, 1 is 180 acres. Our hunting team is the only one that we allow to hunt on those farms 😛

Oh boy, i would love to hunt with your family..

It's nice to hunt on a private farm.

🙂

Where are you from?

You remind me of the guy was once on my case because i was fisherman...A CATCH AND RELEASE fisherman..


He went on and on about hot the hook hurts them... And if im not mistaken i believe in some fish when hooked on or around the outter jaw it wouldnt hurt..

But who is gonna ask the fish??!

BTW..

It was a 10LB LargeMouth
 
i sometimes hunt random school books and dorm fruit........ they don't stand much of a chance......(and they usually make nice explosions)
 
I cant bring myself to shoot an animal. Sorry. Nothing against hunters, just think its an archaic ritual for men who feel they have to prove something.

It has nothing to do with killing something..

I do have a problem with some people who go out and poach or just kill and animal ( deer ) and let it lie there..

If you are killing it for meat to eat, then there is ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with that.

NOT A DAMN THING.

I got the Bow out and took off for the woods last weekend. Saw a couple of Doe's and some yearlings... no big bucks yet here in Michigan.
Any of you Anandtechers into hunting? Anyone had any luck? Anyone going this weekend?

If by "Hunters" you mean geeks who will never see a real life naked woman, and by "a couple of Doe's and some yearlings" you mean porn, and by "luck" you mean cable modem, then yes. I'm a "Hunter" who "Had some luck" to see a "Doe and some yearlings".

No kidding...those archaic savages didn't have chicken and cattle factories like us. The least they could have done was look at their food sources as if they were crops to be harvested with a bolt through their heads.
 
I haven't hunted in nearly 10 years. Deer hunting is like a State religion in Michigan. People pull their kids out of school, small businesses close down during the week, carrots and beats and hunting supplies are sold everywhere. Hell, Doctors advertise 'Hunter's Special! Free Mossey Oak hand warmers with every office visit!'

Ok, well, its almost that bad. lol!

That's awesome and I miss it, hopefully i can go for some big game one of these days in Colorado Or Utah...

Wish me luck, going out for a midday hunt!

Good Luck!

Least your up early, lets hear some results!
 
I've generally always been against killing animals, but.. thinking about it recently... the meat you buy in a store comes from a slaughtered animal anyway, so..

If I could stomach the cleaning part, I would totally be into it. I would love to get hundreds of pounds of high quality, free range, hormone free, virtually guarenteed healthy(due to natural selection) meat for virtually free. The money savings is only half of it.. the meat itself would be so much better for you, plus for me.. it would be a continuation of not supporting the mass meat industry. I already try not to by buying organic free range meat, but you can't do that all the time(fast food, etc).

You have to clean the animal very shortly after you kill it, right? I guess I could probably stomach it, but.... it would definately weird me out probably the first few times.

Maybe I could just find someone that could do that part to hunt with me. 😉
