A great hunter is someone who knows there good but doesn't need to compare knowlege, equipmentor killsto fluffthere ego. A great hunter respects the sport and thanks god for his kill. A great hunter offers suggestions but doesn't get bent out of shape because someone disagrees with him. A great hunter enters the woods an hour before daylight, stays till dark, doesn't kill a deer and enjoys it just as muchas he would haveif he had taken the next world record. Everyone is so quick to talk about the number of deer they've killed or how big they are, who cares. I would like to kill a big deer, I'll work to do that, I will learn while trying to do that. If I don't who cares?, If I do, who cares? My children will be in the woods with me this year whille I'm trying to accomplish my goals, do you think I'll get one? Probably not, but guess what? I'll be with my children spending time with them and doing something I love to do. Years ago I used shoot 3D tournements and there was tons of pencil pushing ego throwing butt holes there. I let them ruin the sport of bow hunting and tournement shooting for me. Now I realize it's everywhere and I'm the bigger person for not being like that. Never again will childish people ruin my joys in life. Repect each other, nature and look out for the next generation. Hats off to lax dad for a great post.
