I think the word succeess is used TOO often.

Hunting is great in such that you can learn, have fun, make friends etc, all while failing. When you go out hunting your intent is to kill something. Just because you don't doesn;t mean you didn't have fun, or enjoy yourself, or help some one else out, etc. But you failed at killing an animal. Sometimes the greatest hunts are those that we fail on. there is no shame in it. Look at every predator in the world, they fail far more attempts than they succeed. That's how it goes. It's ok to admit failure, and have a good time doing so.
