Default Anybody have to look away as their deer dies?

Don't get me wrong, I love hunting and nothing makes me more happy than filling up the freezer each winter. I have shot numerous deer and luckily most of them have dropped right in their tracks and died or only made it a short distance and died quickly. A couple years ago however I shot a buck, and while he dropped right in his tracks, it took him probably two minutes to fully die. I put a good shot on him but it just took a little while. For those two minutes though he kicked and whined and I couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Like I said before, i love hunting and my conscience hasn't stopped me from it yet, but out of respect for the animal I sometimes have to look away as they die. Just wondering if anyone else feels this way or if I'm a loner? lol...
