To get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday. To enjoy the outdoors....I've seen some of the most incredible things while hunting! But first and foremost it's the adrenaline I get when I deer is right under me, or a huge covey errupts and scatters, and when I big tom gobbles 10 yards aways......simply incredible! Oh, and I like game meat too! Tell that to PETA! LOL
