Buckfevr,
I do not disagree with you. I have taken the shot countless times and I am an avid hunter. I was just trying to portray a message in this story that we as hunters often miss. We need not measure our success as a hunter by the amount of meat in the freezer or the size of the mounts on the wall (though I do enjoy both ) but rather the time we share with our fathers and sons and the memories we have to take with us.
