LAST EDITED ON Sep-23-12 AT 12:36PM (MST)[p]Easy fellas, the guy doesn't know me......but I have to say, Buzz, that your attack is as misplaced as your assumption regarding my name for antelope. I feel the need to tell you I also call them speedgoats and goshdamnits for how hard they can be to hunt sometimes, so if those names also offend you, my apologies.
I, sir, am an antelope addict. If I could find a way to hunt them every year in every state, I would. I settle for stalking them with a camera when I can. And until I can find a way to import gemsbok meat, antelope remains my most desired game meat.
If I were to respond in kind, I would say you are a cad for assuming that my usage of the word 'carp' is somehow a derogatory term. Shame on you, sir, if that is the case, because I also find carp worth my time. They put up quite the fight on both rod and bow.
How ironic that they also persist and survive under the most incredible environmental conditions and human encroachment and the continual attempts to remove them from waterways.
I don't take for granted ONE DAMN MINUTE that we have on our continent an animal that for all intents and purposes is a living fossil that evolved when predators were as fast as they, and are unique in every aspect from the other big game we enjoy.
My bad for assuming that no one would be offended by my name of affection to my favorite game. My bad also for assuming most folks on MM know my character by now.
Your bad for judging me based on one sentence, and in more ways than one.
ROBB- got the list buddy, looking at some of the WIA's today. I'm open to your wisdom. Wanna do a road trip?
