    If you shot a sheep in head because you think it's a hare...you did not positively identify your target FULLSTOP... Thermal,spotlight,scope,binos,or open sights don't matter.YOU failed to do your...

    I think your last paragraph is the problem. I have no problem with the Hunter that goes out once a month to shoot a meat animal, all I'd say to that person when you shoot your one in a group of 5...

    Yeah I get that 100% But hunters need to step up when you can get to the tops with your kids and see mobs of deer running around that arnt frequenting farmland I believe there's the issue. It's...

    The example of ducks and semi autos is relevant, but maybe not as intended. Some areas did have crashed populations but I believe that was more due to land use changes than semi auto shotguns. The...

    Yep there an aspect of "disconnect" about thermals v binos, the difference is spending hours looking through binos to see nothing & 5 minutes through a thermal to see nothing and knowing it's time to...

    I want to use a thermal because I'm a shit hunter who hasn't shot a deer in his last 5 outings. They are great for giving you a direction to point your binos and give you an idea if it is worth...

    I’m over the tyranny of the collective trying to control my recreation. They can but out. If something is legal then it falls to my individual choices on how I proceed. And I will worry about what...

    While we're at it, we should debate the use of anything bigger than 308, suppressors, binoculars and spotting scopes, dogs, quads, compound bows, topo maps and smokeless powder. Hell, why do we even...

    It would be a labour of love to re-handle a ten dollar knife. I prefer to accept them as they are and just use them.

    Always been the same with spotlight shot deer...it's not really a trophy....sort of deal. The hard won small set of antlers means so much more than the one that you "cheated" to acquire. It's almost...

    I don’t think there is a line. Ethical hunting belongs to the individual, not to the hunting community. But we should all obey the law.

    So I take it from the comments so far, it's OK to use a thermal to get your animal/trophy? But from other discussions, not a helicopter? Where's the line?
