I was just cruising YouTube for MD videos. Man, some of these hunters are real hacks. I was surprised at the poor techniques some of the users were showing us. Granted not all of the hobbyists posting videos are well seasoned and have like 10 years on their machines, BUT, GOOD LORD!!
Before I had a lot of time on my machine, I remember I had to get better at pin pointing, but some of these people were really making a mess. What hurt were the hunts in the parks and turf damage they caused. You could get away hunting like this in the deep woods or in the dessert, but if a grounds keeper of a city park saw what these people were doing, our hobby would be outlawed and they’d be gun fire!
I’m sure the very strong majority of our members don’t roll like this. Many of the videos that our regulars shoot are excellent in every way.
These bad videos reminded me of why it’s so important the leave the places we hunt better than we found them. This is bad advertising for our hobby!
