Next to game farms and high fence hunting tree climbers are the most unethical of all hunters.
To sit up in a tree with bait or scents on the ground dressed in scent-lok camo you have taken away every protective sense that a deer has. (eyes, nose, ears). There is absolutly no skill on the part of the "hunter" the deer finds him instead of a hunter finding deer.
You don't need the ability to shoot, they're seldom over 30 yards, you don't need to learn tracking, still-hunting, even woods craft, just ride or walk to the nearest tree and sit there.

RE: High tech hunters push ethical envelope
they are simply capitalizing on a group of people with no ethics as hunters and no respect for the animals that desire to kill. The bottom line to this group is DOLLARS and CENTS.
And to address the issue of whether or not they are psychos...well you decide for yourself. The big three determining characteristics found in most serial killers are as follows: 1- above average intelligence 2-show abusive tendencies towards animals 3- commonly are bed wetters
Anybody that has the money to throw away on these "hunts" probably has some intelligence, thats how they got the money. And if you think that this practice is not abusive to the animals i can't help you. And as far as the bed wetting goes...your guess is as good as mine.
All I'm saying is that a mentaly stable individual would agree that killing animals from your desk in your underwear is twisted any way you cut it and i definately would be very skeptical of anyone that thought otherwise.
