NRA and High Fenced Hunting...

[WhiteyMacD]

Ok, so whats up? Is this really a valid use of NRA pull? To back opposition to fenced hunting bans?

On that note, how many of you consider fenced hunting... hunting?

Personally, I dont consider it hunting. I would much rather call it open slaughter since it isnt a far stretch from killing livestock in a pen for processing.

I'm not saying I find it unethical, I'm just saying, doesnt sound to sporting to me.

Seems unsporting to me too. How many people do this? It would seem that all the fun was taken out of it. Like fishing from a barrel.

I wouldn't do it either. Heck, if all you want is a trophy, just buy the mounted deer head. Skip the whole getting up early and getting dirty part.

I am in agreement with each of you. Hunting inside of a fenced area, really? Where's the sport in that, when you can corner your game and move in for the kill?

It's definitely not something I would be interested in doing.

Hunting in a high fence is a sign of small and insignificant genitalia.

and too much money.

and too much money.

Thats honestly the first thing that comes to mind when I think of people who would do fenced hunting... city boys (no disrespect to city boys, I am one, I just know my way around the country too).

Canned hunts are an abomination. I sure hope it makes those who do them manly, because they damned sure ain't!

The guys on the African hunting forums call them "canned hunts".Stateside they sometimes make it possible for someone to take an exotic(there are several in Texas) animal they would not be able to afford to travel to Africa to hunt.Not defending them,just explaining why some exist and are legal.

I don't like high fence hunting, but if someone wants to spend their money that way...I could care less. It is not hunting but if I could run an operation and make good money letting people shoot my penned animals, I'd make the money. What has the NRA got to do with this though? If guns are involved, I would think they would be all for it.
