Add to that the fact that you exponentially increase the level of knowledge with a group. We see it demonstrated here every day.

Why do you think the Natives generally hunted in groups? 'Nuff said!

Beowulf65 · 10-27-2009, 01:28 PM

Because they hunted giant herds of buffalo, in the east they went out in groups but did not do drives but broke into smaller groups usually in pairs. Want the source of information on that I actually have it

so I had to post it.

Why do wolves live in groups? Why do we live in groups? Why do ants, bees, ............

You couldn't survive entirely on your own in the long term.

Even in today's society we sometimes feel we are surviving on our own, but we're not. We're living in a group society. Do you go to the doctor, use roads that are paid for and built by a group, do you purchase groceries of any sort???, etc. etc. That's group living!

As far as hunting in a group. As long as Dick Cheny ain't your hunting partner you'll be fine.

To take it a step further, we hardly even think on our own--hence the herd mentality.

You had best be better than the Apaches were at disappearing,more silent than wind on an owls wings,as odorless as pure Mountain air. Otherwise you are just out walking in the woods....with a gun.

Yeah I see where hunting in a group,and working a drive is better than hunting alone... A lot better. Better to have a little deer meat than an empty belly, or a rabbit, or coon or whatever.

My father was disabled (MS) and hunted with a gun club in South Jersey. The topography is so swampy, they used the driver and stander technique quite effectively. The standers were normally older, more experienced shooters. BUT, they all shared the venison.

Rick · 11-06-2009, 02:51 PM

Not Winnie. I'll bet the best she can muster is Somewhat Perturbed Cow Disease. I'm not sure she would actually get mad.

Winnie · 11-06-2009, 07:12 PM

No Rick, I don't get mad, I get even. I find it far more therapeutic

crashdive123 · 11-06-2009, 11:12 PM

Winnie - Not getting mad is good. Getting even???? I prefer to get ahead.

Rick · 11-07-2009, 12:15 AM

But where do you keep all the heads? Personally, I'm running out of room.

crashdive123 · 11-07-2009, 12:17 AM

There's a joke in there, but with our PG-13 format, I'll let it pass.........just sayin.

Rick · 11-07-2009, 12:19 AM

The case is almost full.

Huntinfool · 11-07-2009, 01:41 AM
