    The US isn’t the only place where people hunt you know. I am a hunter and I have done more for wildlife than you ever could so stop being pussy.

    Wow….. Know my lives story just like that?? Got a crystal ball?
    If y have done so much for wildlife (which is probably bull)
    how come u r upset when someone voices concern about a hunting technique that is highly questionable? In regards to good killshot placement this kind of “hunting” has a high rate of maimed, lost and prolonged dying by infection results and is publicly referred to as sniper hunting!
    So how come y defend it when it obviously is bad for the animals and pr of hunting??

    Yeah, I know what these guys mean, after all getting in closer requires real hunting skill. What would the chances be of their finding the bull if it were only wounded, or the chances that these dolts would even try.

  4. Blacklung27 says:

    There is nothing wrong with how he is hunting. If you are confident in your rifle and your abilities then there is nothing wrong with it. These guys did nothing to sully the pr of hunting. Is there something wrong with the name sniper hunting, which I have never heard until today. Plus why should I or these guys care what the public think? Some people don’t like any hunting and thats their problem. These guys made a clean kill so can you tell me where the problem lyes.

  5. aburgheim says:

    Right like they would post a vid with a bad placed shot…??
    This is about the rifle industry selling more rifles on the premise of a new way of hunting. Its disrespectful and shows no respect towards the animals!! Sports man my ass!!

  6. Blacklung27 says:

    These guys don’t miss place shots. They are highly trained long range shooters with high end equipment. How does it disrespect the animal if its a clean kill?

  7. aburgheim says:

    Never missed a shot eh???
    Bull! And again, if they did maim an animal think they would have posted??
    The bigger pictures is the publication of this vid and other pr in order to promote higher sales of equipment for this kind of hunting without taking into account the risks of bad shot placement which rise dramatically at 200 yards and or a cough a cold a bear a sneeze a distraction etc. or just plain elevated skill factors. Are y actually a hunter or just dense??
    I mean its all pretty obvious…

  8. Blacklung27 says:

    These guys have their own show, are featured in magazines, and have won national shooting competions. Yes I do hunt, if a season is open I am hunting. I duck hunt every morning before work and deer hunt when I get off. I hunt hogs year round and when I have time make a trip out to new mexico to hunt elk.

  9. aburgheim says:

    And y really don’t understand were i am coming from??

  10. Blacklung27 says:

    Not at all man. I really don’t because some people like to use bows, some like shotguns or muzzle loaders, some close some far. I don’t really see the difference because I have seen many more people shooting bows at 20 yds barely wound an animal and have to track it for a mile or more. There is no difference between the two. If you can make a clean kill then I have no problem with how you do it. Spear , bow, rifle I really don’t think it matters.

  11. aburgheim says:

    Everything is relative lol y r right!
    Sorry for being verbally rough.
    its true every weapon has an average range of save kill placement.
    I think for the average scope/rifle hunter a shot past 200 yards is a long shot ihave shot over 180 free standing and done well but i also have shot around 200 yards gut shot and searched for hours! I wont do that again i know that at a certain distance it becomes a gamble and to promote longrange shooting is bull because just to become good y will maim many.

  12. Blacklung27 says:

    Atleast you have an argument rather than just calling people faggots and commenting on genitals. Thats about all you get these days on here. I have only maimed 1 deer and it was at 55 yds but have made 500 plus yard shots with no problem. I learned to shoot long range in the military and after I got out went to work for a gun shop with an 800 yard range out back. I also work for the Texas Parks and Wildlife part time supervising management operations on 33 ranches.

  13. aburgheim says:

    Hahahahahaha y kill me!!
    Why did y not say that to begin with.
    Y learned long range shooting in the military!!!!!!
    See thats waht iam talking about! Do y really think that joe blow is shooting long range with that kind of a background?? NO OF COURSE NOT!!
    And for the industry to promote this kind oh hunting/shooting is irresponsible!!
    Can y imagine how many animals will limp around or/and die a slow painful death??
    For fuck sake its so logical and stupid at the same time it makes me sick!!

    Nice shot. Good stuff.

  15. f0rsak3n123 says:

    they aren’t selling rifles first of all thats a custom made .223 you can’t buy that from a store dumb shit. and would you rather the animal be killed in the wild just like it would any way, or would you like it to be raised on a ranch and fed a whole bunch of preservatives just to be bashed in the head with a hammer and cut up into little pieces and sold to your local grocery store, you tell me which one shows no respect to animals.

  16. aburgheim says:

    R y dense??
    You dont think the rifle industry is behind this or at least applauds this “new way of hunting”? Like they dont have of the rack rifles for this kind of “sport”…… Yeah right y schmuck!!
    On second thought y are a fucking dense boy because if y would follow the thread y would know that this is not about hunting or not or about hunting wild game versus buying at costco y stupid nit wit get y pathetic ass out of your face and use at least your spinal cord before opening your hole.

  19. aburgheim says:

    So which one is it?? Lol

  20. TheCowboyrockstar says:

    I really want to go elk hunting now! It is one of the best i have seen.

  21. fVc4FACE says:

    what about 2000 yard laser cannon elk hunting, or might as well use a heat seeking missile. Bow hunting’s better imo.

  22. SharpShooterHunter says:
