Guest Dan Report post Posted December 8, 2006 Man...I can't even dream that big...either one. \ Since I've posted the original message, I've heard that the Buck was shot on a game farm. So some controversy exists. Kind of like the stocked record Brook Trout. Geez. Can't anyone claim a record that isn't man made anymore? It's really a sad state of affairs when it comes down to this.

Guest merc Report post Posted December 9, 2006 This does sound way too familiar...soooo cause I'm too lazy to type all those thoughts again, I'll copy my statement from the trout thread...funny fits here also. Merc Bam----Ouch!---Tripped climbing up on my soapbox! So this will be the next question in our evolution--are genetically altered fish and game to be held up in the same light as natural ones? My vote is no but trophy hunters and dollars will always prevail. Seems like every time we try to "improve" on nature we send it backwards ie; fish farms on the pacific--lice affecting wild stocks, CWD in wild deer transmitted as reports go from farmed elk. Last week I watched Mark Krupa's show fishing the rivers in the Gaspe area for wild Atlantic Salmon---absolutely incredible----waters so clear as it looked from the dawn of time---fish with pure strains with so much cunning and strength----no wonder this beautiful area is a heritage site---now that's real. I once talked to some hunters from the southern US who tell me of controlled hunts where someone takes you out and points to the deer you can shoot---yeah that's hunting--but the story on the wall probably tells better. How about feeding deer calcium rich feed to increase antler growth---can't be the same. It appears we cater to the people who have so limited time to hunt or fish due to our world's schedules that we've invented the "Easy Trophy" "Yes folks step right up and for one low price you too can have your name in a record book" Sometimes progress stinks---I'll turn the box over to someone else now Merc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Dobsey Report post Posted December 9, 2006 Well I think that all man made records should have there own world record class, if they are going to count man made trophies as records. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
