Some of you may have known that I went hunting this past week... well.....

So it's not in plain view, please only click read more if you can handle the fact that I hunt.
I don't want to offend anyone by having this wide out in the open.
Thanks 8D



I GOTS AN ELK 8DDDDD

MY FIRST EVER.

SO HAPPY 8D

It's just a spike, but he was pretty big and I'm most definitely proud of him and myself for getting him 8D

I'll post a picture as soon as I can CB

I know a few people who hunt with crossbows, which I've always thought was pretty cool.

Ignore me.
I'm one of those people who don't like hunting, sorry.
Congratulations though, it seems like an achievement. Smiling

I can understand why you

I can understand why you posted it, and a first is always exciting...but I think it's safe to say there is a big chance hunting in general is frowned upon by a few players here. This is, after all, a peaceful, herbivore oriented game Sticking out tongue

I for one don't think of you any less for it. Smiling

Elk is pretty huge game to be starting with. XD

I started with racoons, lawl.
(not for the faint of heart, way worse than just shooting something. They scream.)

I understand, VCG, sorry about that then.
I'm sorry if I offended anyone! Please forgive me if I did!

Anyway, thanks guys! Smiling
And terabetha, I use my Grandfather's old hunting rifle. It's a .270 Weatherby Magnum
When he passed away he gave it to my dad and my dad decided to just give it directly to me.

Tally, I actually started out with other smaller animals (ground squirrels -theyareeverywhere- and a few other small ones.) But since it was my grandpa's rifle and my very first elk, I was just too happy to wait.

Aw, ArrowDoe, that's really

Aw, ArrowDoe, that's really special that you have that sort of relation with your dad and your grandpa. :')

and omg Tally, raccoon screams >_< I can picture that! Must be ghoulish!

Yeah, I just wish that I got to spend more time with him than I did.
The first year I got to go to Elk hunting (just staying in camp, not actually hunting because I was still to young) was his last year to go. Afterwards his health just started to decline until he passed away a few years ago.

I CAN PICTURE THAT TOO.

Hunt for food, not for sport.

Personally, I don't have a problem with legal hunting. Congratulations! I would like to do so someday. I have only shot my dad's 12 gauge shotgun (Remmington) a couple of times, but it's a start!
