RE: If it's easy to shoot a deer, does it lose it's challenge?
I really don't hunt for the challenge although I can remember the time here in eastern WV when it was quite challenging to even see a deer. I've seen more deer in a morning hunt now than I used to see all season 25 years ago and I still get excited. I think it's just the whole hunting experience that keeps me going back into the woods and also I've acquired a taste for venison over the years that causes me to bag 3 or 4 every season.....[8D]
