RE: Would you take the shot?!?!?!? Please vote...
My step dad is the one whom introduced me to hunting. He was not what I considered a ethical hunter. He would kill deer from a boat while swimming, from a truck if he saw one. My first deer killed was from a boat. I was only a teenager following the example set for me. After killing that deer I felt like it was wrong and not very sportsmanlike. Not long after that I moved away for college and my step dad passed away. I have never illegally hunted like that again, and it took my close to 10 years to teach myself how to hunt the right way. No I dont kill deer every year but I get more enjoyment out of doing it the right way. I am still grateful he took the time to introduce me to hunting. Just not the proper way.
