Hunting isn't a sport unless the possibility of losing exists

1. I dont understand how those Duck Dynasty guys made millions off duck calls

I used to go duck hunting regularly and it never cost me more than a loaf of bread and a hammer. Then they threw me out of the park.

3. You should have used Baron Munchausen's foolproof method for duck hunting

All you need is a piece of bacon and a string.

2. Loss in hunting means not catching anything.

How tragic is that.

As to the hunter themselves being hunted .... what a joke. High-powered rifles shot from a distance.

5. A tie at best

Just sayin'

4. Hunting cannot be called a sport unless both sides are equally armed. n/t

6. They are, but with different things

A deer has better hearing, better eyesight, better camouflage, knows the terrain better and can run a hell of a lot faster than you can. Very few hunters fill their tags every year.

13. Ya, that deer is running to save his life,

not trying to take the hunter's life. None of what you listed does the deer use on the offensive, only as defense. So pretty much a sport that only one player has consented to playing.

7. or running,

running has to be involved to be a sport........

8. . . .or the possibility of being eaten by your would-be prey.

9. Tell that to Dick Whittington

he's a fellow who knows how dangerous hunting can be.

10. I'm all for the animals

being armed too.

I dread hunting season with a passion.

16. Arming deer...

I don't really think that would be helpful to the deer. Where would they get ammo? If they got ammo, how would they load it? How would they shoot it? They don't have opposable thumbs so it would be quite difficult for them to handle a rifle safely, heck they would probably only injure themselves or their offspring by mishandling a loaded rifle. How would they even know what a rifle is? They don't have a memory you know, only instincts. That's why they frequently only run off 30 yards after being shot at (and missed)...they only run as far as they need to to forget the danger.

11. Great giff -- recommend!

12. Most non-hunters prefer meat in tidy plastic packages

that is true

14. If that cat was attacking another animal

I wouldn't be able to watch that video. After watching it multiple times, I am marveling at the beauty of its attack.
