1. I didn't watch the TLC airing of this. Someone over at HuffPo said she did a little dance of
delight as she cut the critter up. If she did, she's quite possibly pathological.

6. Lack of opposable thumbs.
Probably wouldn't work out any better for an animal no matter what kind of firearm you gave them.

10. Thanks for this very enlightening article
I was going to start a thread in the DU Outdoor Life Group about this.

1. For an allegedly experienced hunter, I found Sarah's questions to be suspiciously amateurish: "Does it kick? Should I get him now?"

2. Everybody's whispering, presumably because the caribou might hear. But if their hearing is that good, why didn't it run away from the first few shots?

14. Yeah, that was blindingly obvious to me too...
I'm not even one of the hunters in the family and I can see the Amatuer Hour in action there.

Apparently , she didn't even bother getting some range time in to bone up on how to her aim (and little things like "how to reload").

17. She's no shooter.
I saw a clip of her firing a shotgun. Piss-poor form.

I will bet that buck was 'scented' up. A buck lured by pheromone scent won't even flinch. The two camera crews would have freaked a caribou under any normal situation.

3. Caribou tastes GOOD!
Palin is a fucking idiot, I hate to call her a fellow hunter.

5. "usually my daddy's by my side when I'm hunting"
From what I just witnessed, she's never been hunting before. Daddy even reloaded for her. What a phony.

A bloodthirsty phony.

7. She's obviously no hunter. Just posing to piss off liberals in order
to get them to tell her she sucks so she can claim victimhood by elitists. Don't take the bait. She's a flake and a grifter and that is all she will ever be.

13. I never do hunting before.
She fired like 5-6 shoots before able to kill the Caribou, is it suppose to take that many tries?
When I saw some hunting shows in TV, usually hunters only have one chance, if not, the target will just run away.

15. Yeah, that's usually how it goes.
Even when you're hunting with a bow and arrow like I used to, you're lucky if the deer doesn't run off after your first shot.

18. Yup, it all seemed staged to me.
That caribou stood on the horizon and let her shoot at it?? Unless it was a caribou staging it's own suicide, there is something very stinky about this whole canned hunt thing.

16. Okay- I have been formally trained by the Army but I have never hunted
Edited on Thu Dec-09-10 09:06 PM by underpants
Let's start with the TV aspect- the binocular and sight visual is completely added. The animal presents itself on a horizon twice so the final shot is probably a zoom in with crosshairs added.

Hunting-like I said I have never hunted
that animal had no concern about their presence let alone the camera, light, and sound guy. There were at least 6 people there.
that animal had no concern about 4 or 5 shots being fired.

She is a bad shot.

Army
BRAS - easy for young GI's to remember
Breath
Relax
Aim
Squeeze
Probably editing but she rushes into the first CLEAR shot and then fires all over the place.
The caribou gives two TWO prime shots, on the horizon, at its heart.
I found in my introduction to shooting that breathing was the key. You should suprise yourself with the shot and always fire on the exhale.

The Army is really good at training people to do this. And that is with the higher tech rifles she had as opposed to an issued M16.

Is she really such a diva that she can't do the bolt action by herself? Jesus, it is like putting the transmission in D for crying outloud.

19. And to top it off, she missed 6 TIMES!!!
Hell, she makes even civilian rednecks with gun collections look bad.

Hopefully, this will cause her to lose points in the polls.

20. Sarah, you couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with a shovel full of dirt at 2 feet.
Have you ever shot a gun before in your life?

My god how pitiful.
