Jeff,

I shot a bunch with a bow (big and small) and tons more with a rifle. When i was young it was a huge deal to me - you would swear i just stuck deerzilla with how excited i was. After about the tenth one it just started getting easy to kill doe - almost to easy. I am fortunate that i hunt some places in PA that are still littered with doe and could easilyget multiple shot oppurtunities in one sitting. After so many of them, it just became pointing and shooting not hunting. Maybe im just changing phases as a hunter and its no longer about filling tagsbut finding more of a challenge - i don't know but you are right we all do it for different reasons and nobody is wrong.
