RE: The Kill - Revisited .......
ORIGINAL: AF Hunter
Over my years hunting deer, I have shot at 12 deer, harvested 12 deer, and ate 12 deer. I do not harvest more than we will consume. I take from the earth what we will eat and do not go out to shoot animals for the thrill of "killing". Although, when I release the arrow or squeeze the trigger and know the shot is good, there is still that adrenaline rush which adds to the hunt.

16 kills (less than 3 seasons)......16 recoveries and one "unknown". I can live with that.
PT..here's aquote I like to refer back to when i see threads like this one. It sums up my thoughts better than I could express them.
"The kill is the satisfying, indeed essential, conclusion to a successful hunt. But, I take no pleasure in the act itself. One does not hunt in order to kill, but kills in order to have hunted. Then why do I hunt? I hunt for the same reason my well-fed cat hunts...because I must, because it is in the blood, because I am the descendent of a thousand generations of hunters. I hunt because I am a hunter." - Finn Aagard

RE: The Kill - Revisited .......
I go hunting with the intention of killing something everytime. I don't get up at dark thirty in frigid temps to watch deer, I'm there to hunt them and hopefully kill one.
That what you are looking for PT?[8D]

the actual kill, putting down a deer, is the worst part about hunting for me. it's every other aspect of hunting that i enjoy.
