I have to kill something otherwise I would have to do it at work! Kidding, maybe? I hunt for the whole package, being one with nature, watching all wildlife, camping, roughing it, getting away from the norm and the spouse etc. When I first started hunting years ago I tried so hard to get a deer and would get mad when I did not, then once I learned that if I go out not caring whether I bag an animal or not, they were everywhere. For most of us it becomes a passion that we think about all year long and spend most of the off season preparing for the next one. It is hard to explain until someone experiances it. It is addictive and we spend alot of money to do it. I personnally have spent approx 50,000 in the last two years to hunt. bought land, built a cabin, new guns and accessories. Please don't confuse hunters with criminals such as poachers, trespassers etc. they are not hunters just law breakers.
