Thread: Taking the Hunt out of Hunting.

Definitely no stress this end. I suffer from some things but stress isn't one of them.
I love the fact that people think they need technology or have to use technology to get deer on the deck.
It means more hunting opportunities for me in the places I hunt, as them using technology pretty much keeps them out of where I roam.

If a young person needs instant gratification in their lives to the point that they must shoot deer quickly starting out and often to keep at it, then are they hunters in the truest sense? Maybe they are or maybe they are just doing it because it seems cool at the time or just trying to keep up with their mates or whats popular at the time among their peers on social media.
It took me 5 years between my first deer and my second when I first started out. Did I ever think about giving up? No. Frustrated yes, but failure just drove determination and desire to be better.
I have the hunting gene ingrained into me too strongly to have ever thought about giving up or wanting to not be able to hunt.

The bush hunting channels are no more or less popular than the long range or shooting channels. This isn't about which category is better or worse because there is no better or worse, just different ways of achieving the same goal.
Its more about how the shooting channels are using so much technology nowadays that there is very little hunt left in my opinion.
This is the reason why I've unsubscribed. There wasn't enough left to keep myself interested.
I see the hunt as the part that holds my interest, not the end result, or having to have a deer down to be deemed a success which the shooting channels seemingly seem to rely on more.

If anything these channels may possibly deter young guys even more so because of the sheer amount of electronics and other stuff needed to seemingly get venison on the ground.
Some of these guys have so much gear and electronics that isn't and wasn't necessary previously when their channels started but apparently is now.

Ive been subscribed to Gonebush for years. Their channel is still on my subscription list.

Don't know, doesn't matter, just spitballin
