it seemed like(in that video) you take way too many shots from bad angle - just hurting them where arrows just bounce of bone.........

I have hunted my whole life and I am in no way, shape or form anti-hunting. I think one thing all hunters will agree upon is that times have changed for hunters and not for the better. I do think you should think twice before you post a video if the video will help or hinder hunters maintain their rights to hunt. In that respect I think it is perfectly clear your video has the capability to do great harm for our rights as hunters.

Go to youtube and search TheFieldArcher (copy and paste) and you can watch the shots in slow motion. One deer ran 100 yards, the deer you are talking about, the arrow went through the shoulder blade and out the chest, only ran 40 yards. I wait for good shots, I am not out to wound animals, that is evident in this video:

Im not against hunting or guns or anything (if your eating the meat), that being said, dumping a big pile of corn out and painting your face while waiting for a deer to come eat so you can shoot it just doesnt sound like my idea of a good time...maybe im missing something

I also agree with the others that the videos your posting are not helping the hunting cause

killing the squirrel - thats kinda uncool

That about covers it. I used to take out frogs with my bb gun, let alone the real stuff. Bye the way we have real full grown animals in North Dakota. Just saying, ya Bambi killing Southerners. That I am now.

Seriously, when I was in the army, some guy came in with a deer and I thought somebody glued antlers to a fawn.

My bad
I posted without watching the video.

First off, Since when can an able bodied man use a crossbow? It's been years since I've hunted, but damn, only handicapped people could use them before. That, and baiting weren't allowed for obvious reasons. It's like a buddy of mine putting a box of dunk'n donuts under his treestand to shoot a bear. Really? That's hunting? Hunting is to hunt. That's just hanging out waiting to shoot something. Things have changed since I was a kid apparently. I have always been against treestands, but maybe I'm different. Squirrels get a .22 bye the way. Nothing else. My twisted cousins used to use a 10 gauge for prairie dogs. not a typo, 10 gauge. That is only for impact, not hunt. If you think it's a game, just say so. I remember having to eat the gizzard, (disgusting) just because I made the kill on the goose. Not a game but for subsistence. Just ask the pigs that got the .45 to the back of the head. No fun and games, just "you are walking food and you are going on my plate".
Maybe I'm just old.

H.I.I.K

I think this whole thing is getting way out of hand. Like a previous jeeper put squirrels are far from being endangered so honestly it doesn't really hurt if one dies. Hell the same could be said for humans, since we are overpopulating the planet. Don't even try to say I'm saying that squirrels and humans are equal, I'm not.

Besides so many of y'all are complaining about shooting a wild animal how about you look into to tortures that the animals that are born and bread in captivity go through.

I agree with take what you kill but as long as you are not sitting out with a 50. cal shooting everything that moves then...... well you get my point.

btw squirrels are tree rats and animals are delicious ....
