RE: Let me straighten something out
Strutter,
I for one accept the apology. One thing that people on this board tend to forget is that differences of opinion are what makes this board interesting. I didn't take offense to the "I've killed more deer..." statement because of the context it was used in. Besides, who really cares who has killed more deer, or less deer or bigger deer or smaller deer? I don't think you will find many people who hunt simply because they want to kill more than everyone else and I'm sure you don't as well. The bottom line is we all have to answer to ourselves. Each of us has a reason we hunt, and each reason is probably a little different from everyone else. We each have standards when we hunt, and again, each persons standards are probably different. The problem with this board (and others I'm sure) is that people forget about the common link we all have and that is hunting. Instead,differences are harped upon, egos are bruised and a gang mentality often rears its' ugly head. Some posters "smell blood" in the water when they see a poster being criticized on the board and a feeding frenzy ensues. I sincerely appreciate the strength that it took to come on the board and apologize infront of everyone for any misunderstandings something you said may have caused. Good luck in your hunting.

Give the guy a break. Some people have a gift with words, some don't. I believe he's being sincere with the appology, even though there was a bit of a faux pas along with it.

Accepted, don't mind all the arrogant people on this site, out of all the sites this is the worst for people who would rather rag on you than help or jump on you for not thinking the same way as them or putting your foot in your mouth. mucho mucho mucho. Don't get me wrong there are a few folks on here that are great for helping and answering questions but more of the other kind that make this the last site I ask questions on.
