I really hope that nobody's trying to label fellow hunters. Hunting is SO personal.....it can't be done. I fit none of those categories.....yet a little of all of them, probably.

You can not tell a man that's shooting 1.5 yr old deer that he will "mature" as a hunter, one day.....and start targeting larger, older deer. It isn't fair. Only HE knows what his goals are.....and if he's achieving them.

I used to let this bother me, BADLY. I don't care, anymore.

I'll use Atlas as an example.......only because he's vocal on this subject a lot. He's probably as content a hunter as we have on this site. Thats "mature".
