[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5858739, member: 1409"] Perhaps a case can be made for "shooting" live targets, but killing animals over bait piles does not make a case for promoting "hunting". [I][B]"Shooting"[/B][/I] (whether it's casting an arrow or a bullet) [B]is in fact a part of hunting. But "hunting" is not necessarily any part of [/B][I][B]"shooting".[/B] "Shooting"[/I] is an activity, a [I]"sport"[/I], and a very different [I]"skill set"[/I] than [I]"hunting".[/I] Many professional "shooters" (whether for "sport" or for their careers) have never "hunted" deer or any other "animal" subject to game laws. And I'm personally all for promoting "shooting", just don't harm "hunting" in the process. A good example of promoting "shooting" is our archery programs in schools. Even the hunter education programs promote "shooting" (and "hunting"), as do the more obvious promotions of shooting sports, especially among youth. [/QUOTE]
