As long as you stay within the law...
A lot of folks hunt in ways that I don't-no biggie---just because I
drive 55, or 70 in a 75 zone doesn't mean that I expect everyone else to
drive as I do..
If I were starving, or in an extreme survival situation, I might change
my ways, just like if I had a dying kid in the car, I wouldn't think
twice about putting the pedal to the metal.
But for now, under these circumstances, I don't see the need for extreme
measures.

Thanks.  No luck today...I'm blaming the horse.  He didn't blow at me,
but he did stand there and stare.
