I apologize if I sounded as if I' m against " trophy hunters" , because I' m not. It just seems to me that sometimes people miss the point of having a good time with family and friends while in the great outdoors. I have a friend in CO that will hunt the entire bow season for mulies and will not kill something unless it will place in the record books. He' s currently listed in the top ten for in-velvet with a bow. I have a lot of respect for the time that he puts in trying to fullfill his dream of number one in that class. Everyone needs their own motivation, and if that' s your' s, best of luck to you.
