There is nothing holyer than thou regarding common sense is there?

You also mention a pack mentality?

I take comfort looking at the replies in this thread that there is a lot of common ground...

The fact either of you are even considering this with no experience or validation shows a total lack of common hunting ethics and respect for the animal.

Go shoot some steel...
