Great peice! The pics and story make most hunting mags look like junk, too bad we don't see more content like that.

Awesome article, especially for BBC.

"I Love animals but I Kill them too...'Kill' has a certain unapologetic honesty to it."

Couldn't agree more. I have always hated the term 'harvested'. I am not farming the animals I Hunt. I Kill them.
That's the truth of the matter, hiding what we do in the Hunt is dishonest and I'm not apologizing for Killing my prey.
If people are too squeamish for the truth, they are not worth my time. Why is it up to the Hunter to educate the uneducated...grow the f--k up and figure the food chain out for yourself.

Rant over, good article. Thanks OP

X2 ^

An interesting quote from the article:
“In the US at the moment, more women are becoming hunters than men."

That's the second or third time I've heard that in the last year or so. I guess it must be right!
