That's right, Preacher. That's compounded by the fact that that there are a lot of folks who still take the old "an eye for an eye" stand.

Hunting...internet...

Good info...especially for thosewellversed in hip waders..
Good socially...made some great friends via the Net.
Good debate...you bet...
Good for typing skills...

Bad? My only concern would be what overallmessage is being sent to our kids/teens..and new hunters... Its so easy to focus on the negative in society today...the more quality folks we have onlinethe better because the net is the WAY of the future for our kids..

Overall, I believe the internet is good for hunting. I've learned much from it with the help of many of you folks. For me this wouldn't have been possible without the internet. I feel thefirst hand experiance and advice which you get here, is priceless.No, seriously, I do mean that!
There will ALWAYS be differances of opinionon the net like anywhere else.I've learned to sort out the crap and the troublemakers and just focus on what interests me. I try to steer clear of the back and forth stuff as much as possible. I love HNI too much to allow someone else to ruin it for me. Come oooooooon Nov!

I like it because it has given me an opportunity to talk to and personally meet some of u who have turned out to be some of my best friends. I enjoy hearing you boys from the states talk about things because it gives me a whole different perspective. Things are a whole lot different up here as to hunting pressure, terrain, animals etc. Its always interesting to hear someone from a totally different area tell you about the land, deer, different seasons etc. As for debates well i do have some issues as i am always right and have difficulty with understanding people who disagree with me. Bad personal trait i am stuck with but thank my parents. [8D]
