I guess I'm just the opposite of Buckmagnet. I don't HAVE to kill to make it worth all the money and time spent. The time spent in the serenity of nature is payment enough for the money and effort spent. The actual killing of a deer is the candle on the icing on the cake. In fact, over the years there have been hundreds of deer I didn't shoot simply to give me another reason to go to the woods another day. I've passed up hundreds of deer over the years, bucks included, with no regrets.
Thanks BGfisher. You put it into words better than I did. Sometimes I end up calling my hunting trips "hiking with weapons" but I enjoy them all the same.
