Y'all are joking right????
Proud???
Look, I have no problem with someone killing their own meal. Whether my cow is slaughtered by my own hand or by the butcher, dead is dead. In fact, I'd rather do it myself. At least there is a connection when I kill the animal. If ya wanna step into a pen and kill your dinner, cool! No problem here. In fact, I have a guernsey that is ready for market. I think I'm going to have my boy shoot her 8 times (EXTREMELY poor shot placement (did you see the holes in the pig's guts (nearly four feet back from the vitals), stand five feet behind her, and call her a trophy..........). I'm then going to publicize it and hold the boy up as a hero. There in lies the problem. People that don't know better think this is hunting. You'd better squash it.
But when ya package this as "hunting," it really sticks in my craw. The anti's are having a field day with this, and rightfully so. If ya don't believe me, you'd better start reading something other than predatormasters. The pop already has a websight and was (don't know if he backed off) selling pictures.
This stinks to high hell. Hogs in the "wild" do not get to 1000 lbs. Hogs raised in a pen with no excercise, a trough in front of them 24-7 do. Then some schmuck in a golf shirt shells out 1500 for his boy to "hunt" the animal (no doubt shortly after it has been "released" into the 1500 acre enclosure), and bills the thing as shooting the biggest ferrel hog.... COME ON!
THIS SUCKS!
Again, if ya wanna shoot high fence, cool. No argument here. But this isn't even high fence. This is an incident of someone shooting a farm animal and billing it as hunting, AND then trying to profit off from it. This makes all hunters look bad. The pop should have thought the thing through. The boy will wear this like an albatross for his life.
Ya wanna shoot a 1000 lb hog with a weapon ya can't handle (8 shots with a .50 cal). Okay, call it what it is - killing your farm animal.
PLEASE don't even for a second associate this with hunting.
