I actually feel sorry for people that can't get excited about hunting unless a big racked deer is involved............I just think that is being out there for all the wrong reasons. If that is what you want then just spend $3,000 a year and go on a trip and kill a bruiser. I LIKE the fact that I have no idea what is gonna come down the trail........if anything. I hunt a lot of public land and it gets POUNDED. The days I see nothing outnumber the days I see deer BY FAR........and that is fine with me. It makes the times I get a deer even more special.

The skill argument is so stupid it's rediculous...........is the guy who kills a big buck frequently in Kansas, Iowa, or Illinois any better at hunting then anyone else??.........what a coincidence that all the best hunters happen to live in the corn belt
