Default RE: Emotions

Accomplishment. I've beaten that animal at it's own game, in it's own home. I have a great sense of pride in the accomplishment.

Humility. Killing a deer w/ a bow and arrow makes me very humble. That animals sole purpose in life was to die to feed my family. Very humbling indeed.

Jubillation. I used to fight fire for a living, but the rush of shooting a deer w/ a bow is far above and beyond that of a fire.

Sadness. No, just kidding on that one. I don't feel sadness in the least, I am thankful. God put these animals here for us, and I am thankful for that.

Respect. These are very smart critters we're after. Sometimes they beat me, sometimes I beat them. Either way, they deserve nothing but our best.
