So the scouts don't learn about hunting......and an opportunity (via TV segment)to put what we do in the limelightfalls by the wayside.

Who"wins" in that scenario?

Let Bowtech/Hoyt/Mathewsput a lucrative TV package together with the stipulation that the kill word not be used. It would be interesting to see how many would stick to their convictions.

This conversation always fascinates me.

I can tell you that I would. I do understand what you are saying though, and I don't think you were wrong. You did what you felt was right, and there's certainly nothing wrong with that.

Everyone has their price. Like I said if Michael Waddell's job was open with that stipulation. I would be right there. I'd be going on a road trip!

I've done plenty of things I don't like for money. (like any kind of work)

P.S. When you talk to Bill let him know I am ready to go.

In that case, TeeJay.....you wouldn't have gotten the opportunity I got, and you wouldn't get to talk to the scouts. Who loses? Not you.....but the people you might have reached with your "message".....they surely do.

I use the word all the time.....more than I thought I ever would. I don't hide from it. It doesn't bother "me". It's not always about "me", though.

I'm not saying you "kill" guys (not derogatory.....just for lack of a better term) are "wrong". If you feel that strongly.....more power to you.

i used to say "harvest" on here and other forums...just sounds better to anyone reading that isnt a hunter...i dont know...

but after thinking about it a whilllle back i decided i am a hunter. im not a farmer. i dont grow the animals i kill. i sure as heck dont harvest them. i kill them. so ive stopped saying harvest. i dont care who says what...we all know harvest DOES sound better....i asa HUNTER just dont like that term and cant think of REAL hunting as harvesting. "taking" is a better word IMO...sounds better to me atleast...

to me hunting isnt shopping. i dont raise my deer. i dont even know if theres deer where i hunt for sure..(sometimes i swear there isnt any! lol) but thats why its HUNTING. i dont go into the pen and "harvest" me a deer that is mature and ripe for the pickin...

but i do agree...on TV or the internet etc harvest or other words do sound better.
