My favorite one is actually from one of our members Sigs. Please forgive me because I don't remember it exactly or who said it, but I believe it goes something like:

I'm sure somebody knows where it is for sure.

RE: Quotes about hunting
 

Every year I try to get a deer just to give to my neighbors who are ministers from Africa because deer meat is their favorite meat and they are the nicest people and best neighbors. I took their 13 year old son with me and he and I prayed for meat to take home to his family and it was only his 2nd time hunting. After we shot a deer and found it after searching for it for 1.5 hours he called his mom from the woods and started shouting..."Mom, God gave us a deer, He gave us a deer!" It was great.:D

RE: Quotes about hunting
 

"I hunt deer because I love the entire process; the preparations, the excitement, and sustained suspense of trying to match my woodslore against the finely honed instincts of these creatures. On most days spent in the woods, I come home with an honestly earned feeling that something good has taken place. It makes no difference whether I got anything; it has to do with how the day was spent."

"Life in the open is one of the finest rewards. I enjoy and become completely immersed in the high challenge and increased opportunity to become for a time a part of nature. Deer hunting is a classical exercise in freedom. It is a return to fundamentals that I instinctively feel are basic and right."

"I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow."
