RE: favorite hunting quotes...
I say this to myself probably 5000 times/season, when I'm bored, cold, fidgety, starving, 6 hours into a 12-hour sit...
"The hunt of a lifetime only takes 15 seconds. Suck it up Sally."

This was written by Robert Ruark Who was an American. He had a home in Spain and hunted Africa until he was banned fromKenya for writing the book " Uhuru" .
A book that should be read by more of todays youth.

The famous African(British) hunters name escapes me.

I have this taped to my bow...
Clean Kill or No Kill, Lord
0 Lord, I am a hunter
And life I seek to take
But let me not attempt the shot
Beyond my skill to make
For Lord they are your creatures
Given for our use
But each one falls within your sight
They're not for our abuse
And when I loose my arrow
Please guide it swift and true
Or let it miss completely, Lord
That pain be not undue
A clean kill or no kill, Lord
Such is my heart's desire
Give me the skill to make it so
Or let me hold my fire
And when my time upon this earth
The days they are fulfilled
Grant that I may die at least
As clean as those I killed

RE: favorite hunting quotes...
I don't have the thing written in front of me anymore, so I'm going to paraphrase it as best I can remember...
"And so we find the lot of the duck hunter is not a happy one. He is a child of frustration, a victim of misfortune and a collector of mishap; he suffers from cold and wet and lack of sleep and he is punished far more often than rewarded. Yet, he continues. Why?"
