I may be retired. I have been seriously considering a crossbow and using an aluminum arrow shaft with a blunt to create a biopsy dart tip. Crossbows have no recoil. If it takes exception and tries to rip my arms off I will have a pistol. But right now between my chest and my left shoulder I could take the recoil of a big bore rifle. I am a leftie.

Especially since noting that 67 members so far have voted on the poll. Where are they? I voted "yes" on the poll. I can't speak to the others, but as for "where" I am as relates to this discussion....frankly, I got bored. Now don't take offense, but here we are at 13 pages and that's a bit much considering it appears to me the discussion has degenerated into ...what? Three or so members going back and forth, repeating themselves if not word for word by in general gist of their positions, and not saying anything that should be said like, "This is tedious so we should agree to disagree." Especially when you get into the territory of taking carefully worded pot shots at each other. Criminy, if we were at the local tavern, I'd tell you both to change the subject because you're getting nowhere with each other and order another round so we could discuss something less prickly like politics. 3
MIB Posted January 7, 2024 Moderator Posted January 7, 2024 I voted "no". Like @CelticKevin, I'm bored with the discussion. It's the same people saying the same thing over and over across seemingly dozens of threads. After some amount of time, it comes to me that silence is the best option. It's not agreement or capitulation to the same old drivel, it's .. fatigue. MIB 1

That's for sure better news than I was thinking, bud. Always room for an experienced southpaw and you deserve to stay with it, too.

Pretty much what I said, too, at what? Page 9 or so? And sure, I didn't need to drag things out further but it had been a while since I posted so forgive my exuberance.

So how does that differ from any other thread on this forum, or anywhere else, for that matter? 3 hours ago, hiflier said: You don't? Seriously speaking here. No one? Nope. Seriously. There's nobody out there hunting sasquatches with a rifle, and if there were, they'd have as much chance shooting one as I have of jumping over the moon. Edited January 7, 2024 by Huntster

Roots in Tennessee and Ohio with a bit of SoCal mixed in. So ended up with some high-rider "fer sher" surfer history from back in the 60's, too 1

Debate is the same everywhere and with everything. My theory on government knowledge of sasquatch existence is just my own belief. Of course, the more I think about it, the more I think it's correct. That's the nature of the beast. As a side note, I began seeing the theory discussed among YouTube sasquatch channels not long ago. To my knowledge, the theory originated on this forum. It's growing. @Saskeptic If you're watching, maybe it's tine to organize another symposium?............
Backdoc Posted January 7, 2024 Posted January 7, 2024 Bigfoot - if real -is an ape in my view not much diff than a gorilla at the zoo. However, what happens if I’m wrong and Bigfoot is more advanced. How advanced must Bigfoot be to be called human? If I accidentally shot a bald Eagle I would be in some trouble because of laws in place. But, no one would say I shot anything other than an animal which is a large bird. If I shot a Bigfoot and it’s an animal only then I would guess whatever trouble I might be in would be less than if it’s a person. If such an animal could think or talk well never know as it’s dead. But, how human might it need to be to get me in real hot water? How would we determine how human it would be esp if it’s dead and can’t tell us. if Bigfoot close to human how would we even know unless the thing was caught alive?
