I despise seeing game go to waste whether its roadkill, or unused deer that's freezer burned. I take pride in using all the deer I shoot and building relations with non-hunting co-workers and friends by giving them some meat and keeping up a good image for hunters. I haven't bought beef at the grocery store in over 5 years. I was very offended being lumped in with guys who buy tags for every family member, just to slaughter deer and much of it gets wasted. Yes I too get a good number of tags, but try as I might I don't always fill them. I hunt heavily populated areas that show no signs of slowing down, and this year I am having a little above average year. These last 2 tags I have to fill, I will be hunting a co-workers farm who just about begged me to come shoot deer as he too farms the land. Seems like an all around win-win situation to me.

Nice point DD.
