Why certain species?

Second wind. I dont disagree with you, and I am educated as a wildlife and game manager, so I realize the need for management. The mentioned Canadian operation are legit and ethical for all I know. It was just an excample on operations I think we as hunters should look at with argus eyes. For me its important to ask this kind of questiones an debate them.
My point is that we have to set a borderline where we as hunters dont approve any further genetic management or manipulation. If we allow everybody who has the funds to pay for shooting (not hunting) everything genetic manipulation can achieve, I fear for the future of hunting.

My suggestion, and it is only a suggestion, is that both of you take a deep breath, return to your respective corners, and await the bell signaling Round 2

You were doing so well and took the words out of my mouth until this last sentence! Don't fuel the fire!
You boys just play nice now!
Taking offense is having Satan steal your joy!
It is a very common thing to say ' when you've done this or that as much as I have you'd...' I doubt that it was meant as offensively as it was taken, but jeepers guys lets not attack each other here!

Retreat to your corners and reflect!

My best.

now that is a serious AH addiction ;) and yes jaco hope the huntings been good, unless you have been on holiday again of course :biggrin2:
 
I am not here to fight with anyone...I'd rather build trusting symbiotic relationships. We, as a group, cannot and should continue to profess a "live and let live" philosophy and simultaneously define "hunting" for another man. This was the proverbial thorn in my side. While buried deeply, that thorn continued to irritate and fester...it eventually had to come out. Articulation and thoughtful analysis while irritated is not one of my strong suits.

I am terribly sorry if I offended anyone. I am additionally sorry if I've ceased the entertainment in a leopard blind-in that situation, I know how valueable such occupation of the mind can be.

I will try to do better in the future. And hey, I'd appreciate some PMs from people if you see me straying. As I said earlier, I'd rathr have friends than foes.

Welcome home Jaco. I hope your hunt was joyous. I look forward to hearing about it.

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
