Default RE: Is the obsession to shoot big bucks corrupting bowhunting?

The way I look at it.
Theres a big diffrence between a Hunter and Trophy Hunter and that diffrence is one puts meat on the table while the other will go hungry.
The Hunter will keep his family fed, the Trophy Hunter willseek fame and fortune by doing so he will only corrupt himself.
Everyone is guilty of trying to get a bigger buck than he got last seasonThats not corupttion it is an obsession.
Everyone I know that hunts and holds out for a big buck shoots a doe for meat. I would guess that most of the big buck hunters on this site do the same. Familys going hungry because they are holding out for a big buck... give me a break! I don't think starving familys are worried to much about big antlers.
