Itseems to me your view point is a little skewed. Firstly, you are talking about shooting an almost domesticated deer as opposed to a truly wild deer. I too would probably have a hard time shooting an animal I had sort of bonded with. If I named a cow and then made him a hamburger it probably would be much harder to do.

The truth is the Lord made animals to provide nutritional value to our bodies, and I am going to partake.

Can I ask if you are vegetarian? Because, if youwon't kill them, but eatanimals that is a little strange to me. Hey, this is a free country, so do what makes you feel good and I will do the same. In parting, imagine if a caveman had thought the way you do?? Hmmm. I guesshe would have been confined to berries and leaves. [:'(]

Either way, I hope you find a peace about it.
