I kind of have a "Klingon" (Star Trek TNG) attitude towards hunting. I believe it's in our genetic make-up. We started out as hunter/gatherers, and I believe it's still in all of us to some extent... some much more than others it seems. The adrenalin rush of the hunt/kill can be and is addictive, but I also know that I'm not a merciless killer. I hate to see the animal I shoot suffer. I want a quick, clean kill. But... I want the kill.
Well said! Man is born a Predator! Although much of that instinct has been lost by many. I Love the scouting, I Love being Outdoors, I Love watching nature, I Love the Hunt, but most of all I Love the Kill.
