          John. Contest “hunts” were popular here in PA a while back but haven’t heard much a out them recently. Seems like they’ve died off on their own. Killing for money is just the wrong way to go about it in my view. Dwc

            I will not go into detail on my feeling here(out of respect for MOM) Lets just say that Killing for cash does not appeal to me whether it be animal or human.

              Ironically, I just submitted a Campfire Philosopher piece that tackles this very subject. Suffice it so say I’m not much of a fan. I love competition and I love hunting, just not at the same time.

                It’s funny how things change. I don’t like this idea. I think this sits on that fine line between hunting for a living and hunting for money. But is thier much difference between this and a fishing derby.Trapping was a big part both or countrys was it not hunting for a living. I just enjoy the discusions on how we evolve as hunters and how we redraw these fine lines over the years.

                  Personally I don’t mind it. “Derby’s have been around for a long time. Big buck contest same thing to me. Entering into P&y same thing in my book even though I don’t partake in any of them. What bothers me the most are the threats made on peoples lives. I put human life above any animal life especially a coyote. That was the way it was meant to be.
