Gail Stiefferman needs to get Butch to read some of this. He is an award winning hunter who would either laugh or growl at these posts. sheila Peggy <pmick12@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: When I was first married, we lived on a small farm in upstate New York..surrounded by land the state was trying to have declared Forever Wild...but it had been logged at one time, and the logging trails made great places to ride the horses........and also to walk the dogs. It was all posted land, and had been posted for many years...still, hunters went through at times. We had bears back there as well as deer and foxes, all sorts of things..and still, one of our neighbors had two cows shot one morning, in a field on the other side of the woods.... Holstein cows, at that...stupid city boys shot black and white cows.......I don't know what colour deer they thought they were shooting at.... I'm not opposed to hunting, but only by people who know what they're shooting at, and who will treat the game properly so it can be eaten...... I have to admit, tho, that I'd rather eat ducks and geese than venison or bear..........!!!
