Aren't getting what??? You aren't saying you need all of those things to enjoy hunting are you?? Everbody has their own idea of what hunting is to them. Hunting is a personal enjoyment for many people and most have different idea about it and why they love it. For some it's about trophy hunting, some its about being in the outdoors, some the thrill of the hunt, some the meat, and for some it is simply being at deer camp and spending time with friends. (and for many it is all or a combination of these and more). I personnally like being out in the woods and seeing wildlife - and harvesting and eating deer. I don't expect to see a 180 class deer (there just aren't that many in our area) and would be very pleased to see/shoot a 120 class deer. I was etremely happy when I shot my first (only) deer with a bow (fork horn) and continue to get excited when I get/see any deer. If that makes me less of a hunter then, well, I guess I am.

Enjoy hunting, however you do it. Hunt hard or don't. Scout or don't. Do what you like and have fun. Happy hunting
