The new information age can be pretty intimidating, especially when people use social media to criticize, even threaten a person’s safety. Fortunately, that hasn’t stopped Kendall Jones. She’s intentionally pouring salt in the wounds of anti-hunters with her Hottest Hunter Contest.
This brave young huntress is determined to break stereotypes about women in hunting and developed the contest to prove her point, as reported by Fox News.
Controversy is nothing new when it comes to Kendall Jones, the 19-year-old Texas Tech student and avid hunter. Last summer she was in the cross-hairs of critics over photos on her Facebook page displaying the rare big-game she killed on African safaris.
“Fox & Friends” reported Sunday that for her “Hot Hunter” contest, Jones asked guys to submit photos of themselves in their hunting gear. She got lots of responses, including shots of guys posing with their big-game trophies.
Critics took aim at the teen over her competition.
“Let’s hunt you for your blonde locks …,” Calvin wrote on Jones’ Facebook page.
“You may love your makeup but it doesn’t hide the monster you are,” Jennifer said, according to “Fox & Friends.”
Jones picked a North Carolina hunter as the “hottest one” the other day as she fired back at her detractors.
“The real reason I did this whole competition was to prove that what really pisses off the anti-hunting crowd is not that I hunt, or that I pose with my trophies, or that I’m proud of my achievements . . . it’s the fact that I’m a girl and I’m doing these things,” she said on her Facebook page.
