I'm far from bent out of shape. Actually I find this comical. Don't agree with one thing I say....no skin of my n*ts.
Don't take things so seriously man.........it's just an online discussion.
You basically said that hunting here is very easy and all one needed was patience to be sucessful. I have been giving you ways to make this place as equally tough and rewarding as your other piece of land by stepping your standards up and shooting something that's actually hard to kill when one has good deer numbers like you've been saying. But you can't or don't want to see that.
I see it perfectly clear.........I just have no interest in it as I have told you 10 times already. I have no problem killing deer under the circumstances on the farm.......no problem at all..........however, when I think back and remember each seasons success and failure I will always look more fondly upon the deer I had to work much harder or have even more luck to get..........it's just natural. I am not going to kid myself into believing that killing a deer on this farm is as hard as killing one in some other places I hunt because it simply is not. I have no problem with it..........and I fully admit it is easier to kill a deer there.........what is wrong with that?
In that 2nd quote, you contridicted yourself right there. You find shooting something off of your other piece of land more rewarding than shooting something off unpressured farm land deer. Hey...that's great and I can understand that, but then I'm not sure why you then say that your not up for a challenge and don't want to make hunting harder for yourself when you hunting this new land by stepping up your goals and actually attemping to shoot somethinga lot tougher tokill. Old doe....3 /2-4 1/2 and older bucks.
But maybe I still just don't get it. ha, ha
You're right...........you still don't get it. I don't care if the hunting is harder........I don't want the hunting to be harder.........I don't long for more of a challenge. I have plenty of that in all the places I hunt put together........some are REALLY tough and some are OK.........and the farm is easier IMO. What is so wrong with that?? I have no problem killing a deer in ANY of those settings and will do so without hesitation........I am just realistic about the level of difficulty involved in each setting.
Do you honestly expect me to believe that you consider sitting over a food plot full of 50 deer and just picking the one you want to drop as hard as say hitting heavy pressured public land??
C'mon man...............it doesn't take any thinking at all to realize that numbers play a huge roll in your chance for success. Would you rather hunt on a private farm with 40 deer on it or 1,000 acre's of public land with 10 deer on it?? Obviously you will have a better chance in the smaller densely populated spot.
Do you really consider every deer you ever killed to be of equal ranking on a difficulty spectrum??............you never had someone tell you to sit in a certain stand and show you where the deer come in..........and sure enough an hour later here they come!!
Just because something is easier doesn't make it bad or wrong. Some deer I killed were as easy as pie.........some I had to work my freakin' tail off and have luck go my way just to see something..........no big deal. It's just the way it is.
