Why don't African Americans Hunt?

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

A very good friend of mine who happens to be a black dude did some hunting. He hunted rats while serving a stretch up in Elmira NY..LMFAO- Snitches get stitches!

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

If you were black would you wanna be in the woods with a bunch of rednecks with guns? Lol

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

Ive hunted in Pennsylvania for 20 years and while I never really thought about it, now that I read this thread I realized I have never seen a black Guy or gal while hunting. I did however take my son to the hunter safety course here that is required for Jr's to get a license and there were like 6 black children in the course. I wouldn't think you'd sit thru a 8 HR course for nothing.

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

who hunts in random woods and besides that why would i be scared when i got my guns too lol it wouldnt matter what race you are i just might take a shot at you if i catch you snoopin around on my land anyway lol ... yall a tripp only people scared of rednecks is city folks (of all races) lol. so yall just stay in the comfort of yall street lights.

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

That was a joke nothing more. I am city as far as where I reside but I feel safe and secure in the woods just as I do the street corners. Im in the woods every Saturday 9 months out the year give or take. I also hunt in random woods regularly. If its not posted property. If theirs a house near, ill ask first but if no house around and its not posted its fair game. Pa has some excellent white tail deer and the the Turkey here are exceptional. Everyone should partake in what is a part of everyone's heritage regardless of your race. However, the less people that hunt just ensures next years big Buck for me

LMAO @ agk

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

ive hunted all my life and live outside a big town ( maybe 15 or 20 miles outside the big city) i actually grew up in the city and when i was married and on my own i moved out to the country .. but all these years of hunting i have never seen any black people hunting .. why i dont know.. maybe because it is not passed down as tradition.. around here hunting is usually a family thing.. grandpas hunted dads hunted

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

Living in Alabama I know alot of black people that hunt and own dogs,,One down the road from me has a yard full of dogs.In the south thier is plenty of black people that hunt.All black hunting club bout 5 miles from me and they use black and tans,blue ticks, to run deer.Thier also some damn good fisherman around here thats black.

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

As far as hunting random woods I would be scared for a white or black person to go on state land and hunt lmao...Talk about woods full of idiots..Thats where every Tom ,dick and harry goes that dont have land...Not aimed at anyone who uses state land to hunt..but its the truth.

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

It is passed down as a tradition in the black families in the south,,or at least south Alabama it is..Most of our black people are several generation hunters.

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

DAMN RIGHT!!!

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

i dont know if theres many "out of town white folk" that would risk going into the woods with a few inbred southern hillbilly's with guns........that film DELIVERANCE tends to stick in the mind....squeal piggy....squeal.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gLN3QoN-q8 i dont care how good your dogs are.....i aint going in no woods with no hillbilly's......lmao

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

I know of plenty of black hunters, they must have taken a survey in the north because I have seen alot of black hunters in the south.

 

Re: Why don’t African Americans Hunt?

Well i was born and raised in Alabama ,,and I have also hunted several times in the upper penninsula of Michigan...The woods are way way way more crowded up north than in the south.If you look at the statistics http://www.pressherald.com/news/hun...injuries_2011-11-13.html?pageType=mobile&id=1 prooves just that..As far as the movie deliverance it
Was shot on the Tallauh Gorge in Tallauh Falls, Georgia on the Chattooga River, town shots were in Sylva, North Carolina on Mill Street, other shot were in Clemson, South Carolina................And man thier not even in the top ten for hunting accidents..
