Trophy---CNN film--Sunday 9pm
Five Seasons replied to Drew2255's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
couldn't agree more. I initially thought this show was about hunting in general and it's very clearly about hunting in africa and even more specifically south africa. I'm not sure steve is the after the big 5, but yeah his way of articulating why he hunts is unmatched. -

as much as we didn't like that guy, a true doc does show all sides. And fact of the matter is, that hunter exists and in Africa it is an absolute reality that a guy with enough money can be a "shooter" and not a hunter. I thought they did a good job touching on "shooters". But some of their editing didn't line up well with the points they were trying to make. -

this is it in a nut shell. Varying landscapes and styles of hunting and ultimately it just proves that we all hunt for different reasons. And really the only thing that we should be working together on is eliminating the crossbow -
this. and never rely solely on something with a chip and batteries.

As I was tracking the wounded deer the neighbor kid shot during mz season I was thinking how nice a drone would be for retrieval. Of course this deer was still alive so that's a problem, but I sort of subscribe to "all in" when a deer is gut shot and mortally wounded. It wouldn't be useful at all during early season, but with snow i imagine it'd do well.

good read thanks for sharing. It's interesting that the filmmakers thinks he's a psychopath and yet still does a decent job of letting him tell his side in the film. More docs need to be done this way. Let the audience decie with all the facts and both sides. -

but, all of those things are a reality. I do recommend watching it. Certainly hunters have been portrayed a lot worse. I think when they showed the crazy cecil the lion stuff they could have done a little more counterpoint there too, but instead focused on the guy losing his goats... and not sure most viewers will get the slant they were taking. Honestly the guy crying with his harvest, the ranch manager crying about getting attached. Those are all very real. It's hard to say myself as a hunter that I like killing. I think most of us other than Stubby don't. A lot of anti's miss that part about hunters and assume we're all just blood lusting murderers. We probably care more for the animals than anyone, but we also understand it's the circle of life and it provides food for our families and actually allows better herd health. -

I'd argue everything in life has its low points. even whitetail hunting. -

So I stayed up and watched it, started late so i could fast forward through commercials. I felt it was fair and balanced. Not a huge fan of the kid drilling a buck out of a blind over a feeder as the opening scene, but I know that's Texas. The best point in the whole film is made by the one researcher who seems to take a middle ground in his thoughts. That without hunting and an economic driver a lot of these animals would be gone or their habitat wiped out for domestic animals (makes a good point about the difference between a rhino and a goat too). But also that hunters cling to a high ground that our conservation efforts are the only way to save animals and we do ignore the corruption in these territories. Basically that hunting is doing a lot of good things for these regions, but it's not the silver bullet. Scary part for me is the poaching numbers. And of course they did shine a light but didn't spend a ton of time on canned hunts. It's tough to see that, probably the only thing that bothered me, but it is reality. They quickly scanned to the guy walking through waist high water showing the opposite side of things. Couple other thoughts. That elephant dying scene is one many of us have had with deer, but it was tough to watch. I'm glad they showed the meat going to use. I also lost all faith in that guy when he goes on the bible rant and puts out his anti-evolution rant. like shit, can't we get one guy without some crazy ass biblical thoughts speaking for us? -

Some of my best memories didn't result in a gut out. Just this past season may have been the coolest experience seeing a mature buck snort wheeze twice at another. Sure would have liked to harvest that buck, but I still walked away smiling with a tag in my pocket. -

i didn't read any of the 4 pages, but super hunter wolc arguing with super hunter four season is a pretty damn hilarious concept. i'd watch the tv show! -
you forgot being anti-gun while making billions off of violence you can't be serious doc. You can be a straight shooter and just keep your mouth shut. The guy fights with people on the internet like a 16 year old girl. you mean like yesterday when he was against the surveillance act because he thought it was about him... quoting word for word "fox and friends" and then after someone with some brain power reminded him this is how we spy on the bad guys, he went back on it? it's laughable. some of it may be calculated but most of it would serve him better if he just shut up a little. he's getting stuff done and this shit isn't needed.

disagree. she's well spoken and compassionate. her ideals match those that will "fix the poor" and "help the needy". that's what the liberal base wants. Our current president (while i agree with his politics) is an absolute asshole and will go down as the most unpresidential president we've ever had. He could save himself so much grief if he just shut up and continued to do good things like tax and immigration reform.

your spelling of eminem is all i need to know. I will not debate further with you. but a little nugget for you. Your income, race, gender or religion doesn't make your vote count any more or any less than another. The dems learned that lesson the hard way and still made fun of the hillbilly racists. lets hope they never learn

I do a lot of treestand hunting, so really when not moving I try to get the best rated stuff I can. Unfortunately it leads to a good sweat on the way in which has forced me to change my approach. Often jacket off or unziped and hat off or a slower walk. Boot temp ratings especially don't mean anything when you have been sitting motionless for 3 hours haha.

There were 2 rabbits and at least 8 squirrels in my backyard this morning. This snow melt is really good for the creatures we pursue. We all know sustained cold and deep snow isn't great. I myself even felt a little happier this morning.
