Yeah, I watched coons and squirrels eat at one of mine last evening...as I waited unsuccessfully for my rogue hog to appear.

To be a true hunter you should live naked out in the woods for at least a year and only use a pointed stick to hunt

I love it.

Some guys making a point that they are more of a sportsman in how they are going to blow a hole in a deer from two or three hundred yards away than the other guy blowing a hole in a deer from two or three hundred yards away.

Zero,

I'm certain our cave dwelling ancestors would have eschewed using firearms had they been readily available. It's all these durn babies having babies that's messing everything up with their dadgumb technology. I miss the old days when all we had to hunt with was dirt and our fingernails. *sigh*

I am sure glad i don't need to invest 50+ hours of unending labor to come up with a bow and arrows tipped with hand pounded flint tips to feed my family!
Not to mention I need the guts of one critter just to make my bow string!
I can just her the griping of mrs.hogdogs now... "When are gonna take yer stupid toys out to get us some muskrats to eat? Why don't you just out run an armadillo and stomp it's fool head in like barney over there on the other side of the camp does?"
