Actually I wasn't starting an argument, but when one applauds (and I'm not saying that youngbuck doesn't deserve it) others who criticize other hunters or through innuendo may suggest that a certain type of hunting is less than honorable as you have just now done yourself... But you KNOW what Fair Chase is, you are adding your approval of others comments.
I could argue, my friend, that hunting with dogs is not fair chase, just fair recovery. But I don't. Some record books insist upon fair chase, though I'm not sure how the quail, pheasant, and ducks, are guaged for fair chase in their respective record books, and though some may choose to only shoot over dogs, others may choose to hunt over shoe leather only.
I don't feel that being in any way divisive is healthy for hunters. If you see folks shooting out of season, over bag limits, wrong sex, etc, they are worthy of criticism, otherwise if it is legal, I would suggest that hunters refrain from being contentious when it comes to us presumably being a brotherhood.
Aloha...
