Default RE: How did you feel when you killed your first deer?

If we didn't feel excitement before the shot why would we be hunting? If we didn't feel excitement after the shot why would we be hunting? If we didn't feel a little remorse when walking up on the animal we just killed why would we be hunting? All of these feelings are natural and healthy. I have friends who tell me they don't get excited anymore and I tell them they should either switch methods or stop hunting for awhile. As for guys who just want to kill something, they do not belong in the woods. Those are usually the guys that will take an iffy shot just to get a kill because they don't have respect for the animals they are hunting.
