The middle of the Ozarks is not Germany and yes, hunting IS a sport and the challenge is very much a part of it. You embrace technology, I eschew it for sport hunting. Perhaps I would not for animal control but, that isn't hunting, that's the high side of just killing. I've taken several head of big game with flintlocks ranging from finely crafted, reproduction Jaegers to the same kind of crafted American long rifles and probably more squirrels with my 36 cal., Southern Mountain flintlock than my old scoped CZ 22. 78 in one year, 75 of which were head shots. I'd say that's a pretty good average.

In 60+ years of hunting I have had the misfortune to lose one whitetail but, I did find it later. It still bothers me. I've seen more lost by hunters using scoped rifles.

I won't write the obvious about those with beliefs of superiority.
