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

Wow, Talon....that was a great read. Thanks.

I STILL get REALLY irritated when I see someone post photos of their kill or even game cam photos......only to have someone post "I never shoot under 140" " or...."I hold out for a ______class deer". WHY people feel the need to quote numbers and classes.....I'll never know. (OK...I DO know.....but I won't say why.....) What if I said my wife was a model....and a complete knockout......and that YOU all should "hold-out" for a trophy like her, yourselves!!!???

Hunting, to me......is VERY personal. This quest for antlers (and only big, beautiful ones).....takes away from hunting, for me.

This is my personal opinion.....so it can't be wrong!
