To others it is a zero sum balance that comes for being blinded to all but the act of killing.
To which PT will readily admit that he ENJOYS the "killing" aspect of the "hunt". I actually don't. It's an integral part of the hunt, yes. Do I "enjoy" it? Nope.
Jeff .... deer hunting to you is totally different than it is to me ...
I would NEVER, EVER be a proponent of someone taking a deer they would , at the time, or subsequnetly "regret" taking. But the deer, as I said, would serve a purpose. It would also be taken legally.
but you possibly did when you justified another's response to ,"get one under the belt" no matter what it is ...
If a man can take a deer....with no regrets.....stack 'em up, brother.
There's no such thing in taking one for the wrong reason.....if the shooter has no regrets when he's finished. He needs to please/appease/answer to NO ONE except himself.
so a man can kill deer and let them rot, and that wouldn't be wrong in your opinion? Or he could kill them and let them sit in his freezer until he throws them out??? How about the guy that hunts to brag to everyone else what he's killed??
There IS such a thing as "the wrong reason"
