I am (we became) an 'Agent' of the landowner.
Fact is, NO SHOOTING does not apply to us or the landowners.
Plus nearby Game Farm that started all the problems in the area has already been bogged down in several massive lawsuits from nearby ranches - - -
People swoop in, just a bunch of dumb hick farmers, we'll tell them what is what doesn't happen.
Game Farms feed and bait wild animals, That is illegal.
Aircraft patrolling radioing in Game locations for Guides to take customers to is ILLEGAL. People out patroling in vehicles using radios to inform Guides where Game is located is ILLEGAL.
As a taxpayer a whole bunch of us want all this corrected and stopped.
It is high time the state enforces these laws.
A non-profit Hunting Club is altegther different.
All members contribute money and their labor making lands more favorable for wildlife. I have belonged to those organizations when I used to hunt that type of game. We put in a lot of physical work, Sierra Club Volunteers, tons of people volunteering their time to turn waste lands into productive haditat.
Nice try! My statements were not a putdown attempt. They are the truth based on the trash you have posted on this forum! You are a poacher period! No backtracking and illogical or illiterate arguments will sway me at this point. You are unethical and as others have stated you have no business here! Take your trash elsewhere untill you do get busted and then none will have to listen to your BS! Actually if we are lucky one of those pigs you shoot with the airgun will have his way with you!!
40 to 50 shots seem like a lot but if you are not hitting the hog in the right spot he won't drop especially using a small caliber weapon.
I have this story.
After I got out of the ARMY I moved to my uncle Allen's farm/ranch in Hattiesburg Mississippi. He has a 355-acre spread with two stocked pounds, 75 head of free ranging cattle (they range on Masonite Corp land). Anyway we had some other relatives come for a visit so we decided to butcher a hog. My cousin Alvin wanted to take the hog down with a .22 using .22 longs. We told him what angle to hold the rifle but every time he pulled the trigger her would angle the rifle so that the round would skip over the hog's skull. He must have shot that hog 8 times before my uncle stopped him. My uncle placed the rifle at the right angle and one shot knocked him down.
To put a face on me this is tony270 the Cajun/Creole hunter.
I'm pretty sure game finding devices are not legal in CA.
There is a section in the regs that say's the use of night vision or thermo devices are not allowed when hunting game.
Where is the fair chase in useing them any way.
BTW, welcome tony. Please understand there is a big difference between killing a domesticated hog at close range with a 22 long and hunting for wild big game with one or even worse an airgun.
This thread should be titled "Things that make ya shake your head"............
Using a gamefinder as a tool to hunt with?
Fellas, this ain't fishin where folks use fishfinders. It might be technically "legal" to use (at least until the Fish and Game catch up with this practice), but I'm with Pirate, it SURE ain't an ethical method nor is it sportsmanlike at all to use that in the field to locate live animals. In fact, a few years ago we had a guy on a pheasant (wild) hunt pull one out once and start scanning ahead of him. I asked him "what the heck is that thing?", and he said "a gamefinder". I said...."isn't that designed to be used to locate DOWNED game that you wounded and can't locate because you don't know how to track (or place a shot)?" I also added that if you don't want to hunt for em, you just want the meat, go to a Pheasant farm and shoot all the birds you want. He looked pretty sheepish and immediately put it away. I meant to shame him into doing just that because it's a cheesy practice. That's my opinion and it ain't changin.
There are plenty of tools (binoculars being one) that help hunters locate game already. Using stuff to locate your quarry up close is ridiculous.
The Sierra Club is not a hunting club. They are about as anti hunting as they can be. You may want to read the stuff you write before you post it. The parts that I can make sense out of seem like garbage to me. I actually don't think you hunt at all. I think you are a fraud trying to tick us off. I'm not biting.
