Yep....
At the Expo last weekend C.J. Winand why giving a presentation he said the Greatest tool the hunter has against the Anti's is the FHFH (Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry)
"What can the anti-hunters say when they see pictures of homeless and under privileged children being fed venison? We know all too well how the hunting community seems to lose the battle of "emotions" that those opposed to hunting push to the general public. The FHFH program produces a win-win situation that even those opposed to hunting have a difficult time criticizing."
"Research has found that 80 percent of all non-hunters approve of hunting as long as the meat is being utilized. This is reflected whenever a deer sharp-shooting program must be initiated to help control numbers of deer in a given area. Nothing addresses public concern for animals like using the meat to feed hungry children and families. Again-emotion sells! "
