As far as why do I go . . . . because the peace and quiet of sitting in a stand and communing with nature. And seeing all there is to see. Looking at the light as the sun sets. Looking at the animals. Birds (I had a woodpecker land 10 feet above my head last night) is more therapeutic than anything else I can imagine.
Amen to that!
Hey, its your call...do what your gut says. You'll never regret that. I let a ton of deer walk every year, not one time have I ever regretted it. I shoot what I feel like, when I feel like it and don't worry about what anyone else says or thinks.
