Yes it's a rush, but I don't become a babbling,jumping, fist pumping, jerk off. It's me and the deer for a few quiet moments.
Wow, so if I pump my fist, jump, or babble to my cameraman, I am a jerk off huh?
Bottom line, for me at least, is that when I have someone right above me in the tree (who in my case is always a close friend), it is just natural to get excited with that person. It is natural to shake hands on an accomplishment on both our parts. I do get excited, even on a doe kill, and have been shown on video shaking like I was freezing to death after the shot was made on a doe.
I guess I could assume that anyone that keeps it between them and the deer quietly is a jerk off, but then again, that would be ridiculous of me, wouldn't it?
