Big strong predator that sucks at hunting so much that they need to lure the deer to stand directly in front of their gun.

At that point you're not even a hunter, you're a slob that might as well be ordering from a menu. Pathetic.

I live in Texas, land of the manly fella.

Lots of ‘canned hunts’ - animals fenced in behind ‘game fence’ with nowhere to go, really. Most hunts here you go to a deer lease, which is a big land area with lots of game, stay in someones ranch home, have someone wake you up, feed you, drive you to a deer blind with corn feeders, and let you go. They come back, pick you up later, and process (butcher) anything you may have shot. Typically you leave afterwards with Bambi wrapped up in 1lb chubbs, some backstrap tenderloin steaks, and whatever else is left of the poor trapped animal that you didnt blow to smithereens with your overpowered deer rifle.

None of what most rednecks refer to ‘hunting’ is an actual hunt. Its baiting and waiting.

This was literally an episode of King of the Hill. Even Bobby saw that it was total bullshit.

This is the toxic masculinity version of shooting fish in a barrel isn't it?

Except most people don't really put fish in a barrel then shoot them.

Im not sure what video i was watching. But I found it interesting that basically in Texas there is no 'public' shooting infrastructure. everything is private, so to shoot you need to have land or know someone with land and pay. Is this true in your experience?

[–] Feinsteins_Ghost@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Thats correct. Either private shooting range, or private land.

this sounds like a stupidly inefficient way to run a slaughterhouse...
