just don't "enjoy" the act of killing. I think I'm not in the minority. I could be wrong.

Look at the poll .....76 % at the very least, like it .... most love it ....

I stand corrected then, PT....

I never thought I'd write......I'm in the minority.....because I don'tenjoy killing.

76 percent gives me alot less faith in human kind,I don t know why I,m suprized though.

HUH? :eek:

I feel remorse with every animal I hunt and kill. I try my best to make sure I get a clean fast kill. It doesn't always work out that way.I guess when the remorse, (guilt) takes the fun out of it I will stop hunting.

Take up golf GMMAT, the balls don't die. Sounds to me like you fight your own nature. Why? If you don't enjoy, excuse me love, to kill a deer, let it be. Doesn't make you less of an archer, or a man. Don't do what doesn't feel right. Sorry if it sounds like I'm preaching. Not my intent.

Maybe you missed the point or feel diferently I don t think after 30 years of bow hunting I am going rethink somthing that I live for maybe it is because I have killed so much in the buisness that I am in it has made me feel diferently than you I don t know.To me I feel the ppl that posted on here that they had mixed emotions are more well the guys I have more respect as hunters as uposed to saying I like to kill things.

C'mon blackfish. If you've killed so much, why would you do it for pleasure on a deer? You like it, that's why. No need for apology. Be proud. You're saying you have little respect for me because I love to wax deer? On a hunting forum? C'mon. Did I mention I'd take a bullit for my German Shepard? No kidding!

The kill is the climax, every thing else is foreplay. When I was young, it was mostly the climax that mattered, now that I am older, the foreplay is important.
I have had several seasons of foreplay now and will climax in Kansas this fall.
Look out kansas, here I come!

Thanks for posting that Chris.

Have a great week.

GMMAT sounds to me like a true hunter and loves it.I never apologize I am proud when I drag one out.I think we both are doing just what we where wired for.And I still think your missing the point I think the ppl that feel mixed feelings have a deeper love for the sport and the animal.

What? GMMAT, please tell me I missed something. You frickin' hunt deer, but don't enjoy killing them? Am I missing something? Why do you do it? Dude, I'm perplexed. What is the reason you carry a weapon into the woods to snuff out the life of another living creature? Points? Prestige? Notiriaty? Acceptance? Trophies? Apparently, it ain't to become one with nature. I feel sorry for you man. When people put some of the summer sausage I, or my best bud makes (his is better), on a Ritz cracker, and say, "wow, that's good". Then I tell them how it got there.
