This is one of my favorite threads on the CTB, but it sure is taking a long time to load. I am going to try starting a new thread Big Bore II. We can continue this great topic there. How about it??

Sorry Doc,
I was out of town on business, just returned tonight. I have a graduation party Saturday and am trying to catch up on the yardwork. I will send it along end of weekend if time permits. Sounds like you have a new toy and the time to use it!
Thanks again for your help.

I'm grateful for the help Doc. I have Monday off, so worst case I can do it then. I was traveling with an avid sportsman last week, we had some good stories to share to pass the miles away. He hunts with a bow as well, got eight deer during the one day thinning held by a nearby town a couple of years ago. It is performed under a nuisance permit granted by the state due to the destruction caused by these animals in that area. All the meat goes to a venison program to feed the poor and elderly. He said he would not do it again, felt guilty as it was like shooting ducks in a barrel. I have been in that area numerous times, the residents have to put fences around every plant they don't want destroyed. There are 200+ car-deer accidents a year in the area so it is one of those things that creates a ton of controversy between the animal rights groups and the people that live there.

We need to get those people sidetracked somewhere. At least the animals we eat are already dead. We take living, breathing vegetables and eat them alive.
You can't imagine the terror a carrot or a kumquat feels when they see those teeth coming at them, or the pain of having their living flesh dismembered while their life's blood (you know, fruit juice) gushes forth.
It is too horrible to contemplate.
I think I'll have breakfast. I hope we are not out of encapsulated embryonic chickens (eggs) and pre-masticated, seasoned, porcine flesh (Jimmy Dean sausage) (MMMMM).

I am on way to Marks house for breakfast. If I time it right I might get to AC's place just in time for some smoked meat, . Cutter, You might well be talking about the metro park right my house adjoins. No joke. We were in the NRA mags and had a lot of articles published about the deer population problem. Sadly all good intentions can go astray when you get politics involved. We had the anti-wildlife folks picketing, which was good for a laugh. It started out as archery only. The problem was no one was really shooting the dog gone does because we had so many enourmous bucks. I literally saw the biggest Buck ever less than 100 yards from my sub. Easily 180+ B/C. So the next year the powers that be decided to include shotguns. IMHOP not the brightest idea in a park. Especially when they didn't bother to notify all of the surrounding homes about the hunt. oops. It finally has been thinned down now we are only about 100% overpopulated for the acerage. It honestly has made a big difference but it is not unusual on the NE corner of the park to see 40 deer out at a time. The deer eating from my bird feeders in my photos are Park deer. I can certainly understand your buddys perspective. As much as I love to hunt I find it a very anti-climatic activeity. If thoose steaks weren't so darn good I proboably would not waste the time. All of the meat here went to food prograns for the needy.
