Reply to comment by Raeandray in TIL that many pro archers use surprise release mechanisms to prevent themselves from anticipating and reacting to the impending impact. by broogernavn

And “good hunters” seem to be a shrinking demographic...

Deer season started two weeks ago.

Guys have been filtering back to work.

So many stories about booze, drugs, hookers, 4 wheeling, guns, and wounded animals “that weren’t worth tracking”, very few stories about habitat, conservation, and a general appreciation of the outdoors as something to be enjoyed in solitude and preserved.

You must be right. The GOOD hunters I know would not be TALKNG about the booze, drugs, and hookers. What happens at deer camp stays at deer camp.

A massively overpowered 4 wheel machine that is ridden by drunk assholes tearing up the land.

They are not allowed on most public land because of the damage they can do.

Lol, sounds like you just live in the wrong part of the country for it. There are tons of places that off-road vehicles can be enjoyed responsibly and are completely legal on public land.

Many states do not allow 4 wheelers or utv in state forests (which is what we hunt). Federal does not either as far as I know.

Ok, and many states do allow it, and in fact have designated recreational areas for just that purpose so I'm really not sure what your point is. As far as federal land, have you heard of the bureau of land management? They have literally thousands of miles of backcountry roads where you can go and drive whatever you want on.

Sounds like you're just a killjoy who has some weird issue with motorsports.
