I dont get why people think hunting is a sport. Dont get me wrong im not saying people shouldn't hunt. Im just saying it isnt a sport.

I guess its just as much of a sport as NASCAR or Golf? I did cover about 5 miles of mountain terrain before I got him.

I can agree with that. People jocky for positions on the highway everyday and golf is more of a game then a sport. Hunting is good exercise as long as your not one of those sitting in a stand. I'll even throw fishing bowling out there as not a sport.

Very cool Big Tymer, i love to see hunting and fishing pics. I have not been hunting much in my life. the way you describe turkey hunting makes it sound really fun. Good luck in the month you have left.

On the issue of what is or isnt a sport. In my opinion any game that is scored with actual tangible evidence is a sport. there are sports where judges can come into play, but im sorry ribbon dancing and synchronized swimming are not sports. If there is a score then it is a sport. Looks like BT scored a turkey. There is tangible evidence of his score.
