Amongst other things, I believe the most defining characteristic of a slob hunter is someone who is not efficient with their weapon which creates a greater likelihood of wounded, suffering animals.
This is a definite sore spot for me. Being "half ass" with any weapon choice pisses me off to no end.
Do it right or stay home on the couch!
Or the guy with zero scent control or care of wind direction.
I would say that not paying attention to wind direction and/or zero scent control falls under plain ole ignorance.
Anyone hunting anything bigger than a coon should know that wildlife animals use their nose to detect danger/food/mates.
A coyote can determine within 10 feet either way of where a sound is coming from at 100 yards....and that's just their hearing. Their sense of smell is approximately 7x better than ours.
Not paying attention to the wind direction while hunting is... "Stupid is as Stupid does".
