[OldBearHair]

I hope this is the right place to post this... Well this guy seems to be having all the fun on Independence Day week.

My son sent this to me and I just had to share with you guys. Enjoy.

Can't watch without signing in to google.
I have nothing to do with google facebook twitter or any of the rest.
I am sure they still track me and know everything about me. But i ain't helping.

[TheOutlawKid]

Amen to that RED BEAR!

Awesome! I watched a few more of his videos. I love black powder cannons!

[nueces5]

He looks like he gave the poor pig in his belly, and it seems he suffered a lot until he finished it off with a glock.
I think it's the sum of things that I do not want to do when I go hunting

[rodwha]

Don’t deal much with Google either, but reading how horrific it was for the pig isn’t cool. Without having watched the video it seems there wasn’t anything more than playing with a cannon in an inappropriate manor to take down a pig.

Full disclosure: I love hunting and eating what I take. I don’t care for just shooting things to do so and injuring them and not attempting to kill them outright.

hunting with a cannon is dumb.

that feller in the vid is flat out creepy.

having worked on the "internet" before it was the internet, most folks don't have a clue what it's really all about. forget about worries over google, that's nothing compared to just being on the internet with a browser and/or opening emails you shouldn't. learn how best to TRY to secure whatever device you use to access the internet.

This sure made the mullahs of hunting morals surface.

to each their own concept of ethical morality and moronic behaviour. ymmv.

can't see it unless i sign in on GOOGLE, won't do it. no use for the site.

Just cause you can, don't mean you should.

I gotta side with those calling this dude out on ethics, that is a cruel and unusual way of killing game even if it's a pestilence animal. A head shot with a cannon? Quick kill? Not a problem but gut shooting an animal is not ethical hunting nor is it a humane way to take an animal.

you DO NOT need to "sign on" to google to see a youtube video.

I didn't get the impression that he was trying for a gut shot. Nobody knows but him.

Would I do this? Definitely not, as I don't fool with cannons and probably never will. I certainly would not be posting videos online (heck, I don't even post static pictures of my kills any more). I have, however, shot pigs under a feeder with a rifle. My shot placement was better and the pigs did not go as far, but from what I saw he took a reasonable shot at a stationary animal and it went less than 100 yards after the shot. Sound like other hunters you commonly read about on the forum?

Whoever says they never made a bad shot on game is either lying or hasn't hunted much. Yes, he made a bad shot. But he fought through the thick brush and recovered the varmint just like it was a tasty deer. Pigs are not game animals here. They are a pestilence as said above.

If it says Google, I don.t want any part of it

[Good Cheer]

It said I had to sign in to view the video so I didn't get to watch it.
Was the pig nekkid or somethin'?

[Winger Ed.]

It ain't what I'd use for hunting wild hogs, and I wouldn't hunt them with a cap & ball muzzle loader either.
But others have done far worse as far as shot placement goes.

[megasupermagnum]

I know people who couldn't make a better shot if you gave them the most accurate rifle in the world. I can't think of much better for an accidental gut shot than a 1 1/2" diameter ball. It seems odd that a bunch of muzzleloader shooters are arguing over the ethical nature of a muzzleloader mounted on wheels.

Not my way of hunting but I sure admire his style of 4th of July fireworks ,the pork chops are a bonus ! /Ed
