About TSS and shooting birds at longer ranges had me thinking. It seems we live in a fast paced, "I want it now" world.
I'm from an entirely different generation. Yes its nice to have better, faster, easier, etc. but that's not the way I was raised. I like the fact that I was taught and learned how to be patient and learned how to set up and get animals close. To me its not just about the killing which is the reason I love muzzleloading and bow hunting.
Setting up a tree stand in the right location for cruising buck during the rut, calling in a tom turkey in the spring or any during the fall and calling ducks or geese into your spread is all part of the fun and excitement. To me shooting a turkey at 60 yards or "sky busting" waterfowl is just not my cup of tea. Getting them in your face up close and personal is much more exciting.
OK I got that off my chest. I feel better now...!!!!!
