I agree entirely with Ann. I have hunted most of my life with a bow as well as rifle, shotgun, pistol, etc. It is sad that we can't all just stick together.. there is enough divisivness from tne anti's without us going after one another.

As to hunting at a waterhole or salt lick.. this is no different than hunting whitetail out of a treestand or a waterhold here in the US for antelope.. or calling a bull elk with a call?? you still judge, you scout to see where to put the tree stand.. you DON"T shoot every animal that comes by..at least I don't --and YES, it IS still hunting, IMHO..

As to the lethality of the arrow, some of the quickest kills I have ever made have been with an arrow.. most of the elk I have shot are dead and gone within a minute or less--with the quickest being 22 seconds.. I have seen plenty of game shot with rifles that have not died that quickly --I am NOT opposing hunting with rifles, quite the opposite... again just reiterating that we need to ALL stick together.. this is one topic where even joking can be used against us.. unfortunately that is the world in which we live..

Thank you
