Me and a buddy that I toted on a hunt this weekend were talking about some fishing guides we knew and some of the people we knew that hunt. we actually were using the term "killer" as a compliment. As in, he's a killer. i have the utmost respect for a guy that can kill more stuff than you can shake a stick at, especially if its on public land, and all done in a legal manner. that is the guy that would have "won" back in the days when hunting meant putting food on the table. You would have been at his door begging for food when the winter got tough. I think its funny when someone comes down here and catches a couple trout and brags on it. I know guys down here that leave the dock in the morning, shoot their ducks, shoot their pouldeau/snipe/rails whatever is in season. Then instead of going back to the camp, they knock out their 25 specks and 5 reds a person, then they catch their limit of bass. Then they call me and see if I want to shoot rabbits with my beagle, or they go work on freshwater catfish, or flounders, or take it offshore for snappas/tuna/cobia. All done legally. They don't want to go back to the camp and BS and drink and watch football. They want to kill. Its a bloodshed thing. And yes, absolutely everything they kill gets eaten.
I don't really mess with deer or trophies, and I was a little disgusted when you said a guy was shooting deer at night. But I got absolutely no problem with a guy who is killing limits of everything within the legal limits.
drunk at work again huh
