Wyoming long range hunting debate

[Flyjunky]

Best of luck with that. You have morals or don’t, it’s not a sliding scale. You can’t regulate or enforce them, as evidenced in all society, not just hunting in Wyoming.

As I said before, it’s fair chase, if guys aren’t prepared and take their chances on bad decisions that simply gives the animals a better chance to win. We should be encouraging more of this lol, I know I do.

So those of us who do prepare have more animals to choose from and fill a tag on.

Getting hunters to try to self regulate and attack each other from within is a tactic. Your anti’s are not just outside of wildlife management circles and decision makers, they are within and pervasive in all aspects of society and have many ways they can have us do their job for them.

When the subject is actually ‘wildlife management’ and getting the wildlife managers to do their job instead of having them try to have us do it for them...which is easier? See what’s actually happening here? Don’t play into it.

1. They can’t keep up with every annual trade show season and change regulations accordingly because some new tech came along.
2. They shouldn’t because that’s managing people not wildlife.

That’s counter productive to actual goals and won’t work in any way shape or form. Never has never will.

Manage wildlife for the people, as intended. If the people want more ungulate wildlife then get crackin on predator management, habitat management, along with tag management. Do your counts, know your harvest success rates, allow tags and seasons accordingly, obviously prefer the residents. If can’t support non-residents then time to get to work on improving on game numbers if it’s a goal to support non-residents etc.

The common sense stuff doesn’t jive with liberal logic though so they’d rather just manage us instead, and we make it easy for them, as this and every thread like it, prove it.

Some of the arguments here just make you wonder wtf, and can actually anything be said to such ridiculousness lol. Just wow

Like I said, everything in this thread revolves around ethics. We can limit cartridges but what is going to stop someone from shooting past the ethical range of that cartridge?

Go back and read my other posts and you will get a better sense of my stance. No way do I want to put a limit on range. You’re preaching to the choir with me.

It’s a non-starter. Has no bearing on the topic. Many places in the world have had this tactic used where they can no longer hunt period, getting us to basically talk ourselves right out of it by divide and conquer over invisible enemies like ethics etc. Death by 1000 cuts, erosion of this right, that right, this season, that season, this weapon, that weapon. Slippery slope focusing on sh1t that does not matter...as if it’s all that matters. Off in the ditch discussing weeds while we deliver another of the thousand cuts to ourselves.

The only way to regulate or enforce morals and ethics is to remove the opportunity altogether. See where that leads? See where this sh1t show is headed? If we carry on going after each other with these unattainable unrealistic expectations and goals we end up not hunting period, and eating barcode only crap they control and want us to eat.

And just like that another national park, and no more hunting. And we will believe them when they tell us it’s our own fault. We repeat history if we don’t learn from it and those wanting to hide history from us are planning to repeat it. We gotta learn the game in order the play it properly.
