Buck of a lifetime, then quit?

RE: Buck of a lifetime, then quit?
If I'd be financially set for life, better believe I would.
And the way things are going now, you'd better be pretty well off if you want to hunt any land that has a deer larger than 75 lbs.
Don't get me wrong.. I love and am obsessed with hunting. However, I'm even more obsessed with fishing and competitive shooting.

Nope. I hunt for meat, not antlers. I appreciate a nice rake (he he, what warm blooded American guy doesnt) but that is not my first priority. I also hunt for the peace and solitude of being in the great out doors. A bad day of hunting is better than most all other days.

At first I thought no way.....BUT if I only have to give up DEER hunting, and can still write my own ticket to huntfor elk, moose, antelope, bear, boars, bou, etc etc, IWILLtake that deal. Because unless I hit the lottery I'm never going to be able to hunt all those other critters.

AS SOME OF YOU GUYS MIGHT KNOW I WAS ABLE TO TAKE MY DREAM BUCK LAST YEAR AFTER 25 YEARS OF HUNTING ... I HAVE TO SAY THAT AFTER I GOT THIS BUCK MY ATTITUDE HAS CHANGED SOME AS TO WHAT I WILL AND WILL NOT SHOOT .. I MOST LIKELY WILL NEVER GET ANOTHER DEER LIKE THIS ONE BUT I WOULD NOT GIVE UP THE WOODS FOR A GUARANTEED BOONER .... I COULD NEVER GIVE UP HUNTING ...JUST COUDNT DO IT ....

How do you give up who you are?The love of your family and close friends,Health and Happiness are the true riches in life!! I would never trade the peace,serenity and challenge of the deer woods not for any amount of money!
