and tradition have their roots in ancient times.
Something to be said for honoring the Hunter and the Hunted.

My indoc. into my first kill involved a quick meal of the heart with onions, peppers liberated from a neighbor's abandoned garden and butter on a camp iron over an open flame at the campsite.

It was also accepted practice to dress the deer on the hood or roof of the car for the trip home. Stopping in town for a coffee usually drew folks to come admire your kill along with words of encouragement and congratulations.

Nowadays, I'm sure the same display would involve looks & words of scorn. I don't really care what others think in that regard. I do not think it a misrepresentation of hunting or hunters to do so either.

Being PC is not a joke either. Some people choose to honor that while others choose to embrace time honored traditions.

It comes down to what's important to you.
