I watched a show on TV a few weeks ago....and the host asked a European stag guide the same question...."Why do you hunt"? He answered it the best I've ever heard anyone do so....and it fits me. He said (and I paraphrase): The better question is....Why do some men NOT hunt? He went on to say that hunting was a natural trait/characteristic that is somehow genetically being lost. Hunting is NATURAL.....and the fact that the instinct is becoming EXTINCT in some .....is a sad commentary.

Jeff's take:

Hunting is natural. "I" can't explain why I love to hunt any more than I can explain why the shape of my wife's body makes me melt. It just "does".....and I just "hunt". I wouldn't feel right if I were deprived of either. I think we should all learn to ask people...."Why DON'T you hunt?". We are NOT the ones that need to explain ourselves.

I hope everyone has a great ending to their hunting season. Then go fishing....!!!
