Coreece 190 #1 October 22, 2011 I've been hunting alot lately but I never kill anything. I've just been developing my hunting skills incase I ever need to use them and survive off the land...plus I just enjoy being out there. Over the years I've improved my natural gift to track dead animals and earn extra income tracking game for other hunters...there are times when hunters will be tracking for 3-4 hours, sometimes a couple days(in cold weather), then they'll call me up...after looking at evidence from the kill zone I'll usually find it within 20 minutes with the help of God and a few prayers. Anyway....I've been spying on this grouse in the national forest behind my house up north for about a month now. I've learned alot about it's life style. I've been thinking about going out there and killing it. I just hope I don't feel like shit afterwards and ruin my meal...it's not like I'm starving. What's wrong with me. Why do I have such a conscious conflict with my natural primordial instincts? Am I that weak? Thanks for listening...I'd appreciate any feedback. Please vote. Thanks for your time.Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgoose71 0 #2 October 22, 2011 I say kill it and have a nice supper. What do you think happens when you eat chicken? Beef? anything at McDonalds (excluding french fries)? Either man up or turn Vegan. Time to cut out the middle man. edited to add: Do you have a problem cleaning fish?

Coreece 190 #3 October 22, 2011 QuoteEither man up or turn Vegan. Time to cut out the middle man. Ya man...meat is really expensive these days, especially up here. The main supermarket up here (Glen's) bought out the competition and closed it down...the eye sore just sits there and deteriorates while Glen's sits back and charges whatever the fuck it wants... QuoteDo you have a problem cleaning fish? Ya, actually I do...I won't even kill spiders, ants, or flies unless they really become a nuisance... Fish are a little easier though...I can just keep them in a bucket till they peacfully run out of oxygen, fall asleep and become brain dead... I guess the difference between me and Mcdonalds is that I don't have to stand on the wings of a bird and pull it's legs untill it disembowels in order to get my chicken nuggets...Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

RonD1120 62 #4 October 22, 2011 Yep, kill it, clean it and cook it. I would make certain I had a good recipe first though. Consider it survival training. When the time comes you will have had the experience. There's room for all God's animals. Right there next to the mashed potatoes.

It be easier for some of these guys if they would just be patient and wait for a clean kill. Some of these bozo's really piss me off. The last one shot an arrow in the deer's ass that didn't even leave a blood trail...I was very thankful for finding it and not letting it go to waste.

When you can walk into the same tract of woods and there are grouse every few minutes as you walk thru then you have something approaching carrying capacity. If you kill it now.. its a sure thing there will be less of them there in thr future. You might also think about learning what speices of plants you can plant in the are to enhance the food supply of the species you wish to "carry" in the area. But go for the kill you seem to have the short term need and wish to justify it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coreece 190 #25 November 29, 2011 Quote If, it bothers you that much, leave it be. Chuck Just began watching Dual Survival on Netflix, Awesome Show! Much more entertainment/survival value than suviorman and Bear....Lot's of awesome hunting....almost unreal. A must see. These two guys together pretty much sum up the majority of my personality...They will kill when needed, but they have such a respect for nature and life. Even when they were starving they refused to kill two mating snakes they stumbled upon. These guys almost inspired me to stop comming here in SC and being such an asshole.http://movies.netflix.com/WiMovie/Dual_Survival/70211488?trkid=4213507 Disclaimer - The show certainly coreographs senarios in order to display survival techniques. While watching, as entertaining it is, I have questioned it's authenticity. Personally think they give a nice balance between coreography/entertainment and reality.Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...
