“Hunters’ Moon” toward a patient hunter.
Welcome to a new kind of big game hunting site which is:
·Realistic of hunter ambitions within personal goals and
limitations.
·Bridges science knowledge between hunter and prey.
·Exposes hunters to altitude health problems that affect
hunting.
·Focused on the moral benefits of “fair chase” hunting
ethics.
·Understanding that nature is a globally-interactive
universe.
·Endeavors you to strive for lifetime positive hunting
memories.
·Fosters family involvement in hunting, especially in the
backcountry
·Is not a medium for selling guns, ATV’s, equipment or
clothing (which are not REALLY basics for hunting,
but commercialization of the sport).
Reasons for writing the book and building this website:
1.) Act as an addendum to the book and present newly
emerging knowledge to hunters for their enjoyment, hunting
success and safety in the field.
2.) Instill hunters from low altitudes to prepare for the
obvious and important, but often subtle, disabilities
encountered at high altitudes where elk rule. Forty three
years has shown me that altitude problems commonly lead
to miserable and UNSUCCESSFUL Colorado high country
hunts.
3.) Make hunting cherished experience for families. I love
children, especially their zeal of learning. I believe they are
being edged into obesity, boredom and a lifetime of
insecurity and possibly even depression. Living in the
outdoor is becoming a lost art. Consumerism prevails over
the primary, simple goal of life - to be happy and internally
content. Having the annual anticipation of and preparation
for “the hunt” induces youth to get into the wild and meet its
challenges. Each individual challenge met and conquered
might be be separately minor, but collectively they
gradually instill confidence that future problems of any kind
can be mastered with planning, thought and effort.
4.) Advocate “fair play” hunting in which man pits his
learning and intelligence against the natural defenses of
animals with out an unfair (artificial) advantage. The trend
toward technical slaughtering animals for self-gratification
and commercial exploitation of hunting is unfair and can be
inhumane to wounded animals. This self-centered attitude is
damaging to hunter credibility, and potentially will justly
arguments of anti-hunting groups, and make them grow. Our
public hunting heritage may be taken away from us by these
organizations, and the political power of condescending
bureaucrats and investor-driven landowner pressures to
privatize public lands to maximize profit for them selves.
May you enjoy and prosper from this site!
