some people, eh?

this is a topic that can be and is debated everywhere. i think in our world of bigger, faster, stronger, the allure of antlers is the driving force for a lot of hunters. the media doesnt help, in magazines and on tv ya always see the monsters, not the run of the mill animals. size sells. i personally "trophy hunt" quite a bit, but i also meat hunt, and certainly dont look down on those who do. to each his own. reading that made me think of something that happened at work a while back, a co worker was telling of the spike he shot on opening day of rifle season. his thing was he was only after the meat, and ya couldnt eat the antlers. i asked him why he didnt just shoot a doe, he would have got more meat plus helped our local herd, which is WAY out of whack bucks to does. maybe i was wrong in what i said? i wasnt rude about it, and he did at that point realize that he could have got more meat off a doe, but still, was i right or wrong? tough to tell.

i would never attack anybody because they shot something small however, i dont always get the big one myself.

helluva deal you had, and im sorry for that.
