Let's begin.Let's start with your weapon, better pull that scope off, surely it's an unfair advantage. Once you have the scope removed, pull that bullet out, that is indeed unfair to an unarmed critter. Now let's go ahead and ditch the rifle , well,hang on , you may be able to keep that. That nice warm coat you got on that allows you to stay out for hours on end, yep , take it off. While your at it, those high dollar breathable , waterproof pants, you guessed it, in the ditch they go. Now, those fancy boots you love so much with the high arch support, bye bye. Better let go of those perfectly suited socks you got at the bargain cave, way unfair. Now that your butt naked, cold and wet with no weapon, you are now what the jury finds to be a "fair match" to your quarry and can now classify your self as a Hunter among men. Feel free once a kill has been confirmed in this manner to bestow upon all others your opinion as it is now gospel.Oh, this just in, the useless rifle may be used as a club if you so choose. But be warned, this will leave room for the elitist to trump your method by using a large branch taken from the wilderness at the time of the hunt.Good luck!I make it hard by choice. There is some game if legal I would hunt with thrust spear. It is not so I use longbow most of the time. My camo choice is plaid. For most hunting I like wool and cotton. I have no gortex. I have a range finder it is called a right eye and a left. I am not a elitist I know by my choices I will kill less game. I am not good at long range rifle hunting I respect those that can shoot that well. I get close and leave the gadgets and corporate b.s. at cabelas. Team this, mossy that you can keep it don't need it. I don't want it easier than it needs to be. How easy does it need to be? I just want a chance at pulling a kill off .Naked with a club I have no chance.

Road hunting does not mean shooting from a vehicle. I, personlly, find hunting from a high horse pathetic as well.
To each their own, as long as they follow the law. Open road patterns can, as Stein noted, be used very strategically to find animals. In one area where I used to hunt elk in Wyoming, it was basically a one-day hunt late in the season to find the elk, they were in the few places an ATV could not get - and then a brutal 2-day pack out. A good deal for the fit and strong. Since my health went south, I have tried to acclimate to my limitations, but I just don't hunt nearly as much as I used to - I struggle for satisfaction hunting close to the road. I urge anyone who is physically capable to hunt backcountry while they are able, I feel sorry for the younger, apparently fit hunters I see just driving the roads, hopefully they are just taking a day off - but I doubt that is the case for most.

Show me where I have criticized anyone. making hard by choice is no different than selecting only pope and young or boone and Crockett animals with more efficient weapon it is just a way of creating limitations. If you would like to read a post that is full of criticism look to your own.
Quote from: tgomez on October 26, 2016, 03:07:17 PMShooting a deer or any animal out of a vehicle is completely disrespectful. You should give any quarry you hunt a fair shot at keeping it's life. That's why it's called "hunting." Shooting deer off of a road disgust me and I think it's pathetic unless elderly or handicapped.I would argue that shooting a deer over a big pile of bait is less sporting then road hunting then....
