Bottom .line .... you KILL the animal, jump up and down, hoot and holler, then grab those nasty horns and take a picture and pass it all over the net and to family ...... prolly drive it around, stopping at peeps houses ....... the kill part feeds our ego ... we have dominated the animal by taking it's life ... and we will make sure everyone knows about it ....
You and I view the taking of life......and hunting....much differently, Tony. That is obvious.
It's personal....and no one's view is wrong.
The accomplishment fulfills me. The act of killing the animal isn't even the d'enouemont. The success of the hunt (in totality) is.
I don't think we are that far apart .... now if you start hunting with a paint ball, which will fill all of your qualifications of the hunt and relieve you of the killing part, then I would say we are on oposite ends of the spectrum ......
