Wow, what an ignorant question. Are we to assume that all hunting is for deer or similar type big game? At various times of each year I hunt several types of varmint with both rifle and shotgun, a few fur bearing animals, deer, moose, elk and sometimes bear, three species of native grouse, and huns and pheasant, waterfowl icluding duck, goose, crane, snipe, in both field and in marshes, often by decoying and calling and/or with a hunting dog, on foot, horseback and by canoe, and with modern and primitive weapons. What's the point of posting (or answering ) such a vague poll?
