Lets not be too judgemental. I see it as the job of dedicated hunters to set an example for the crowd of folks who may not be as evolved (and in many cases had nobody to learn from) There is always the opportunity to set an example, whether on the range or in the field. Living near NYC, with changing times I see that there are going to be opportunities to introduce more people to hunting. In this respect, Covid may actually have made a difference. The other side of the coin is that there will be more people in the woods. When I was 14, I met a new neighbor who had a G&H .270, carved his own decoys, did most of his shooting with a Citori, and had a Barbour jacket. My father was a deer hunter but a bit more utilitarian. It was good to have a different view of things and it certainly influenced how I approached hunting and shooting after that. Fortunately ethics was paramount with both. Best US made stalking rifles? (for easter woods hunting) Remington model 7 and Ruger #1 RSI. (Although I may be adding my Savage 219 in 30-30 to that list) Good shooting. Tom |
