I dont use it a lot and pretty much never when I am talking to "hunters"but when I am teaching the NASP program ordiscussing conservation in a life science unit to7th gradersthe word "harvest" is a term students understand and can relate too in the over allpicture of land and resource management. It isalso less offensive to the nonhunters or those that are neutral.
I agree... I use a lot of "like" words,similar toHarvest. It just depends on the situation & individual, and a lot of the times, just what happens to come out. Personally, I don't find the word "Harvest" degrading to me as a hunter, even if spoken from one hunter to another.
