Default RE: Let 'em go and let 'em grow

I applaud each of you who obey your game laws, practice sound conservation, respectthe land and the animals who live on it, and in every way practice good sportsmanship and ethics. I don't care if you shoot spikes, does, buster bucks or button bucks. If you enjoy the sport and have a truly honest since of pride about who you are and what you do, then I think that is highly commendable.
I also think that with the passion in which you state your cases, probably most or all of you fit in the above criteria. With all of the poachers, "slob" hunters, etc. that there are out there today, I think that guys like all of you deserve a pat on the back!!

PERSONALLY, I love hunting for does and mature bucks. If they are 4-5 yrs. old or older, it does something for me I can't explain. Has nothing to do with ego, but everything to do with respect and admirationfor the "ancient warrior". And score doesn't matter either. Just icing on the cake.It really makes me tick. It's my thing. I don't need anyone's approval for it and I'll never make any apologies for it. Butthat's justme.
All I care about as that we love and enjoy the sport of bowhunting.

My hat'soff to all of you, regardless of your personal feelings on this matter, so long asyou obey the law, and leave it better than you found it.

Good huntin'! - cap.
