Hunting made easy!
So, I remember the days when I used to go hunting with my dad and my uncle. It was fun times. We kinda had the whole “Men being men” thing going on there. And I loved the times that I got to be the one to aim and fire on our dinner.
My dad was a surprisingly adept hunter. He knew how to mask human smells from the deer naturally, where to sit, etc etc. But at least we were using some level of hunting skill to get our meal that day.
I saw this article about how technology is pushing the envelope in the hunting world and I continue to be amazed at the things we’re doing with technology. I mean, as a technological concept, “hunting” from the comfort of your living room is pretty interesting. But seriously, what’s the next step? Dare I ask. Or when you think of it … is this just another one of those concepts derived from our military? I mean, this is basically what we’re doing with finding and eliminating enemies from afar, right?
Crazy world we live in, that’s for sure.

Remote weapons a military idea? Nah.
