Which hunter are you?

[Frostbit]

I got Davy Crockett

Didn't realize he was so fat. You should see the picture they pop up.

You got: Jim Shockey

You’re part of the modern movement of hunters that doesn’t forget where they came from. You’ve got the skills and personality worthy of shining on screen, and now that you’ve accomplished most hunting goals, it’s all about doing something no one has ever done before. You promote hunting to younger generations, and feel connected to people when you learn they share your love of the outdoors.

Okay, like none of this sounds like me. Seriously.

I figured you would probably be the only NEIPster taking this quiz. I really had problems with some of the questions but even more problems picking only one answer.

Of all the TV hunting personalities I would not be ashamed to be compared to Shockey, although I would rather be compared to Steve Rinella.

My Buddy Brett got Teddy Roosevelt. I Sooooooooo wanted to bust his balls for being as bad a shot as Roosevelt, but it would be too much of a lie.

Teddy Roosevelt. I can definitely see that.

Your sense of hunting history is unrivaled, and you’ve been using the same muzzleloader your grandfather gave you since you were ten years old. People know you as “that guy,” the King of the Wild Frontier, the one who always fills his tags and owns a record or two. Few can match your tracking and stalking traits, and killing that pesky coyote made you famous amongst local farmers. You hunt for the meat and the sport, not the trophies. Still, the mounts hanging on your walls are impressive, despite your refusal to brag about them. You stand up for what you believe in and will fight for it when called upon.

Davy Crockett here. Funny...since I don't think I've ever shot a gun (for some reason I have a vague recollection of having done so as a teenager, but I'm not sure about it). But I figured I'd answer the questions anyway even thought 99% didn't apply to me.

Didn't he look fat in the picture?

Didn't he look fat in the picture?

Yeah. But it's not like I knew him or anything.

I don't follow the TV hunting personalities much. It's like watching shows that involve bike riding - their style, concerns, ambitions, problems, and solutions never reflect my own situation.

Hunting is my cultural heritage, I eat things, I get excited and I spend a lot of time reading and practicing, I like to party, I grew up in the sticks, and probably picked an aspirational rifle (or something).

Do you hunt, Ginger?

[phillygirl]

A friend of mine went on a "gentleman's hunt" last weekend. We like the terminology, as it's hilarious. It was for pheasant. He told everyone that people carried baskets of pheasants and walked 10 feet in front of them, through them in the air every couple of minutes and they shot at them!

He actually enjoyed it, and particularly enjoyed watching how awesome their hunting dog was.

I still don't think I could actually hunt for sport. Probably just as well as I would probably stink at it anyway.

Do you hunt Ginger?

Not yet!

[Gingersnap]

Do you hunt, Ginger?

Yep. I do. The last 10 years I've mostly done birds (dove season eats up a lot of vacation time; ironically, I feed doves at the house).

At this point in time, I believe I will do more women-only pronghorn hunts. "The boys" put in for deer/elk tags every year and we eat off that more than you would think. I'm more inclined to put in for elk this season myself.

I enjoy duck hunting and field birds. I don't have any good rabbit dogs at the moment - sadly. I do enjoy rabbit hunting with people who do have dogs, though. I'd still rather eat a backyard bunny than a wild one.

Naturally, I am a member of one of the undisclosed prairie dog shoots.

I just had Joyce take it and I watched her answers. They were not all the same as mine yet she got Davy Crockett too.

Explanation needed for the non hunters...well, for me!

By backyard bunny, do you mean ones in cages?
