Now all.we need to find is a Professional Hunter that says a smaller caliber is automatically more effective than a larger caliber to take larger animals...

Again. Quote me accurately please. No one has said that. If your only argument is to quote inaccurate information you’re not helping your cause.

Totally stupid and disgusting as well as inhumane. A modern hunter has the responsibility to take an animal as quickly as possible. If this stunt had been tried in my outfitting/guiding days the consequences would have been severe and immediate. What a jacksss

That was not a quote, never said it was. You were never even mentioned. It was just a comment. You seem to have a talent for being dense. That is not helping your cause.

There is a search feature. The words “instructor” or “legal” and username “Daisy” bring up your exact quotes very easily. Something to consider before you continue to say you were misquoted because you don’t like the direction this has gone for you.

Don’t put your thoughts on me my man.

I looked up my quote. I said smaller calibers are more accurate than larger ones. Not that they were more effective. If you had actually looked it up you would know that.

I took you to be hard headed, but at least honest.

If I had said different you would have linked it here.

Not for one second of my life have a “not liked the direction” an internet debate is going. Not once

Here you go, among many others. I am hard headed but I don’t lie. I chose not to post these in the first response thinking you might take some advice.

 

[Daisy]

Exactly. I said people shoot smaller calibers better than larger ones. Exactly what I said I said.

This feels like bizarro world. I have continued to say that over and over. That’s a lot different than me saying smaller calibers are more effective than larger ones.

I think you may be wasting your time here. Not only does Daisy have memory problems, he seems to.have trouble comprehending his own written words. On Sept. 12 after I said that using comparable bullets, a .243 was never going to be as effective as a .300 WM on large animals. He said that it was and was proven "by every shooting instructor at every shooting school in the world."

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

I was about to post these very words. Understanding this is a level of maturity few ever obtain.

hmmmm,

that giraffe was not harvested as cleanly as it could have (should have in my book) been done. could have shot in head, OR simply shot it again (and even again) until it was down. it is one thing if an animal runs off and you can't shoot again, but when you can, i believe one has an obligation to continue to shoot till the animal is down. but, if you do that.....you can't say it only took ONE shot with a very light rifle.

This. I hunt and fish but I hate to see them suffer. I will even shoot them when they're down if it's clear they're still suffering and languishing.

It makes me want to be really sure I have a clean kill before firing and finish them off as fast as safely possible.

 

[Rule 303]

I have not read all the reply's but the greater majority are my thoughts as well. Other than this being irresponsible acts the other 2 factors that come to mind are 1) Bell used 6.5mm, 303 and 7mm calibres very successfully, this does not make them Elephant cartridges. 2) With large animals that can become dangerous, to me, people should be using a calibre and bullet that can break the animals leg/shoulder. Most large animals can not walk on three legs, if they can it still slows them down a bit that gives more time for a finishing shot. Heart shot animals can still trave a fair distance before they succumb.

My apologies if this has already been said.

I’ll wait for clarification from Daisy, but if comment the other day was correct. This was done by one of the same individuals advocating for 223 on bear, elk, and moose on a different forum. It really makes me upset to see target shooting stunts on animals because I think it shows a complete disrespect to the animals they are hunting.

These types of stunts are done by people more interested in forwarding their agenda than making a quick humane kill and minimizing the animals suffering. Complete lack of respect for the game they Persue. They do not deserve the title of hunter. Sorry for getting a bit preachy but stunts like this make my blood boil.

I haven’t pushed it. That is not me or my video.

I think we should be able to discuss it without a visceral You are entitled to your opinions and I am entitled to think and express how wrong you are.
