Since I like to focus on the positive, hunters make me proud when they participate in the feed the hungry programs.  It helps farmers save their crops and feed needy families.  So I guess it would irratate me to see wasted harvested game.

when I used to hunt deer with rifle, had to shoot doe, cuase ranch had so manynd want to clear some out, so I bought a permit
After I cleaed it out, packaged the heart, liver, etc and labled it ,when I got up next morning to return home. it was gone, eaten
stealing other's stuff with firearms around, not a good idea

Only use backstaps and hindquarters from deer they harvest - rest goes in the landfill.

Oops, not the landfill, it goes along side the road or at end of a pull off where we all get a black eye as slob hunters.

I dont like the drama queens, they make a lousy shot and trail the deer for ever and finally find it and have to sit on it because they forgot a gun or knife.

This is defiantly irritating, The holy grail of archery equipment, no other brand is worthy of being mentioned and should be banned from being sold.

To be honest, your post made me feel a little guilty. I apologise for any fan boy posts I may have made, and will strive to keep it in mind.

Another hunter once stole my tree stand. I knew for sure who he was, but could not get him to admit it or find the stand in his possession. Good thing at the time. A bad feeling to go to your stand the first opening day of archery season and your stand is gone. I tracked the ATV tracks to his father in laws home. I still find it hard to even call him a hunter. He is a thief and a slob, not a hunter in my book at all. He should be tied to a fence post and left for the coyotes, after a good whoopin. RANT OVER ......

*** I really can not stand it when you have done your home work and got every thing set for archery season. I am a working man and I have hunted several weekends and have not gotten a good shot at him. Then come opening day of gun season (muzzle loader comes early here in Ky), here comes people who know you and know that you are hunting a decent buck. I have been so frustrated over this. They actually would watch for my truck and do no scouting and if they can get permission, come right in on me. I since have started just keeping my mouth shut about the deer I am hunting and intentionally go out of my way to keep people from knowing where I am hunting. I have never done this, and would never do this to someone else. We all need to show everyone hunters respect.

I do not concider the elitest who bash hunters for their weapon of choice fellow hunters. People who steal treestands, trail cameras .......people who break the law & give ALL hunters a bad name!

X-2 Fuzzy. I know the feeling, after all the year round preperation and then to  have somebody move in on you because they know you have done your home work. SUCKS BIG TIME. For me thats a huge part of the hunt is the prep. and looking forward to opening day and dreaming of that buck  that could spring your trap!
