Reminds me of where my friend works. He's an engineer at an ammunition company that sells to hunters as well as the military. So, they have these junkets where they bring in clients to duck hunt. The clients sit in the blinds and ducks inevitably fly over them so they can shoot em. What they do not know... the ducks are raised not far from the place where they get shot - and are trained from birth to take that flight path to get food. So, they let some loose and they fly to that lake and the clients have their fun. Bring in another group, release more ducks, rinse and repeat. Funny thing is, my buddy used to hunt before he started working there - now he doesn't even own a gun anymore.

The big boar was hunted inside a large, low-fence enclosure and fired upon 16 times by Stone, who struck the animal nearly a half-dozen times during the three-hour hunt.'

Like shooting fish in a barrel. Or is that "pork in a barrel"? Title: Re: pathetic Post by: Fuzzy on June 01, 2007, 07:19:39 PM HA! Reminds me of where my friend works.

It allegedly has the added feature of the ducks landing behind the hunters and walking back up to the release point which is very close to the food. It's a "hunt" club. No *feces*. |
