Fastest animal on earth, the Falcon. I was flying my new drone... and you can see where the falcon tried to take it out.

One OTHER NOTE... I see this message boards has the SHOW AVATAR off by default, if you want to see others pictures go into display preferences and turn on show avatar

Does anyone use Drones for hunting? Some have Infrared capability now

Probably illegal in many states....and I believe a lot of public lands prohibit them. I know Pennsylvania it would fall under an electronic device illegal to be used in taking game.



I can see it being a useful scouting tool in certain areas though. See the law of the land, different habitats, where the wet ground is etc etc.

I have one that has a loud speaker on it, I recorded some game calls, not for hunting but just to see if it would attract animals. You can hear the speaker, depending on what is playing, about a mile away up in the air.

I saw some very cool videos where people used drones to drop baits on schools of tuna, with great success.

Some falconers now use drones with lures to train their falcons.

Alaska got ahead of the game and banned them for hunting, scouting or pretty much anything related to hunting, a couple years ago. It would be fun and save a lot of legwork, but I’m in favor of the law. Too easy, enables laziness.

There are some game killers who will aways look for an easier way to kill their game. PA has some want to be hunters who constantly lobby the PGC for shortcuts and to allow methods that would have been considered poaching by hunters not long ago.......... Just one more sign of the dumbing-down of America.

A drone used for hunting isn't fair chase, IMO.


The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.

There is a pic of a man wearing a strange costume for your avatar.

Kind of looks like a deformed panda bear.
