This time it was "Eye In The Woods"..... moron host is elk hunting in Colorado.....talks all about his new Savage with the new accutrigger and how this hunt is much different than what he is used to......says he doesn't shoot over 250 yards back home.......well, his guides find a big bull in a canyon and radio for the guy driving him around to get up there quick......they arrive....moron host walks over to where his guides are watching the bull through a spotting scope.....sits down and remarks about how far away the bull is......he ranges the bull with a lazer rangefinder.....529 yards he says.......he also says he has no idea where to hold at that range......THEN HE PROCEEDS TO SHOOT AT THE BULL!! .....well, he hits the bull with the first shot....appears to be a hit in the front leg......he then shoot and misses 3 more times.......then finally, they say he hits the bull good (but they don't show that shot!)....and they start the congratulations.......
rant #1.....driving up to a position where the guides have located an animal, walking over and shooting the animal the guides have found is NOT hunting! At best, it is shooting.........
rant #2......shooting at an uninjured animal when you have no idea where to aim because of the distance involved is about as unethical as it gets!! Wonder how many animals this moron has wounded and lost while doing this?
rant #3.....if the only work a person does is getting out of the vehicle, walking a few yards and then pulling the trigger on an animal that someone else has located... that person is NOT a hunter and that animal is NOT a trophy!!!
