Does every answer to a post of a hunting story need to be a biting attack? I didn't read anything about walking up the mountain in the story, just the glassing and moving around the tops while hunting.

Lighten up abit.

EVERY ANSWER?

You lighten up too John. All i see in my post is that i`m saying the obvious,all the signs are there to read for yourself.

Without wanting to argue at all i think if the helicopter rule was applied to Argali hunting would that be considered kosher.The fellas that pioneered Argali hunting (+chamois+tahr) did it all on foot or on a beast of burden, they experienced the whole package of the hunt and thats it mate "the hunt" not just the pulling of a trigger.

I have some video here of a great, no a huge polar bear that was taken with the use of a chopper, the bear couldnt run any further and his tongue is nearly on the ground,is that kosher.

Taking tahr or chamois in the euro alps using a chopper to get you on top.....is that kosher,you with your euro heritage should know the exact answer to that mate.

Isnt it a fact that these high altitude game animals are revered as such game as mostly its their high altitude habitat that makes them so tough to obtain...one can imagine how tough tahr would be to obtain if they or Argalis or chamois lived on the saltbush plains like their other relatives.

I can go into it a little more as the owner of one of the biggest hunting sites around personally told me that his two chamois were bloody SHOT from a chopper...he didnt have time to get out and hunt just enough to fly up to the tops for gods sake and shoot two and back to the lodge.
It is far more prevalant than most actually know and i shudder to think what the traditional Alpine guides would have to say on the subject.
It is somewhat annoying to see these game/gun writers appear in almost every publication with the latest this and that animal and most of these animals are not less than silver or gold medal types too..hmmm funny that eh.]
A chopper dropping a party off as a ferry service is one thing,spotting (hunting?) a game animal from the chopper for a quick shoot and capture 1/2 hour exercise is another mate.

And no mate its not another "biting attack" its simply saying what i see in such articles as was posted.
