Jeff,

I realize where you are coming from. I have been on both ends of the spectrum. My antelope hunting is what you describe, my bird hunting not so much and I have been running around with a long bow and muzzle loader for several years as well.

The only issue I have with "this is not hunting" coming from a hunter is that it is a divide we really can't afford in the hunting community. Anti hunters are very aware of this infighting and will use this to divide an conquer in their quest to shut down all hunting for all hunters, including the purists that set out with primitive weapons. IMHO, if it is legal hunting, I support it. If a guy has little time and that's what he likes to do, more power to him. If they are allowed to use deer feeders in TX, I will be the last one to tell them I am "better". As you know, it affects our hunting very little, as the high tech guys stop where the 4 wheeler doesn't go.

Just my two cents.
