Default RE: The Kill - Revisited .......

ORIGINAL: GMMAT

The "Kill" is the crescendo to a perfect hunt.....IF it's an animal you're after. Simply killing for the sake of killing isn't "hunting" (IMO). It's exactly what it sounds like......killing. I tell my wife I'm going "hunting"....and that entails a myriad of things, to me. Believe it or not....I had a GREAT time out there, yesterday.....and I didn't even SEE a deer (OK....other than THE deer I'm after that I bumped, going in). What a hunt, though. I learned a lot from it.
The above is why watching that little 4pt yesterday for over an hour at literally25ft was one of my best hunts. I didn't even see another deer. I just enjoyed watching his every move. I was in his little world for a while, and he didn't know it. I like that.
