During the muzzy hunt would you shoot one of these?

I think I made my decision. I'll be going Davy crocket style (but percussion) with an open sighted Hawkins
-
I just realized I haven't killed a deer with a rifled instrument in ten years.
-
4b I would hold out for 150 coues

To Shoot or not to shoot, that is the question....
idgaf replied to Lazy-H98's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
I asked a g&f officer that question years ago. He pretty much said yeah but Subject to interpretation of the officer. -
Good luck scotty. He wants general direction. I am requesting specific coordinates to your honey hole. I will not step foot in the unit until the day before the hunt. Thanks in advance for doing my scouting.

Newly Approved Hunter Ethics Course for the Bonus Point
idgaf replied to rossislider's topic in The Campfire
Cameras are bad. Whatever these idiots say is correct. Here's 150 bucks do I have to watch the video? -
Since you are quoting me, I'll answer Do you really think wounding animals is limited to a particular weapon type? This is a difference of opinion on hunting styles. No one is getting berated. We were not talking about legality. We all know what's legal and like you said ethics are a personal choice. If an open sighted hunter caps his shooting ability at 100 yards, I contend the wound percentage is the same as a scoped muzzy hunter at 250. Without doing a study and zero research on the subject. I will also say that getting close is a much more difficult skillet to master than long range shooting. I've taken one shot from my nephews 5k gun at 1006 yards hit the target and walked away. For the record. I have taken antelope, elk, lion, coues, muley, bear, turkey, javelina without the use of any of the above electronics with my bow and my bison was 80 yards with a rifle solo without that stuff. Once again this a difference of opinion and subjective. Nothing more.

Hunters also have been honing their craft in that time to become more skilled as hunters. To get closer and use their skill to take their target. Theirs no crying/complaining just a difference of opinion on the rules intent. My hunting partners and I get into a similar discussion a couple of times a year. They are all long range hunters and I am just as happy for them for their success as if they shot it close. I do rib them about their skills. If we still had wooly mammoths, I would be down with a half dozen companions, loin cloths, and spears for a bucket list hunt.
-
I would contend the wound ratio is less than a hunt where people are shooting 250 yards at animals. Technology has taken alot of the skill out of hunting.
-
I'm in on the Atlatl. There needs to be a season. Easy money for g&f and real hunters could show their stuff.
-
I killed a coues at 27 paces a few years ago.
-
the one on the top. Because I like hunting Javelina. I don't like killing Javelina.
-
And I'll use a 40 lb recurve and get the same result. This is nothing more than a discussion. You give yourself to much credit that people value your opinion.
-
This is simply a modern day campfire discussion about what constitutes a rifle. The game animal matters very little. If anyone is butt hurt over this, they have had a very easy life.
-
Back to the spring draw for a second. Is the percentages better for bull or yearling in 5a?
-
I think mandatory reporting will happen with the institution of electronic tags they will be going to.
-
Simple if you see someone putting that to their shoulder you think rifle.
-
The ar pistol in the first picture can be put to the shoulder. That's why I'm curious.
-
What's that butt on the end considered? Forearm grip?
-
Forgive my ignorance, but can you guys tell me how these are classified as handguns? I'm just curious.
