RE: wat do yall enjoy most about hunting
I'm not the most religious person to start with, but ever since i started hunting I found myself becoming more and more connected to such beliefs. I really feel good about being able to obtain food the way my family did not so long ago. I also enjoy just being away from the city, people, computers etc etc and see the real world wake each morning. Its something special to get to your stand well before any sort of light and everything be completely silent. All of a sudden light starts to wake the wild and you realize all the different sounds and sights that come about. Kick Ass.

I enjoy just getting away from the daily routine of life. There is just something about being in the woods before the sun comes up and watching nature wake up. Harvesting any animal aint to shabby either!!!

The complete feeling of closeness with God and nature. Getting back to the basics of hunter mentality. Getting away from the phone and the everyday pressures of life.

There is no doubt that the peace and quiet of the outdoors is a large factor, not to mention the adrenaline rush, but to me the most amazing thing is the animal itself. It always amazes me to see a buck or doe simply appear of nowhere. You are certainly in the presense of greatness when this happens. The fact is these animals are superior to us all in the wild. We could neverhope to harvest one of them if not for our camoflage, scent killer and equipment. They are a wonderful creation and we are all at one time or another humbled by them.
Hope this doesnt sound silly, butthe thrill of simplyseeing a large buck is enjoyment itself. A kill only makes it better. As someone once said, the worst day hunting is better than the best day at work.

To me its the experience of being out in nature. Hearing them wake up or putting nature to bed. The peace and serenity, to let go of stress from everyday life. The harvesting of the animal in which I pursue is secondary. Sure Im out there to harvest (or kill as Ive been corrected on), but thats not a must for me. I enjoy being picky in which animal I can harvest...
