Once again, the "chase" and the "hunt" don't put food on the table. There are people here who may only have one or two shots a year at a deer, any deer. Why should they pass on an opportunity to harvest a deer legally simply because someone else thinks it "isn't right"?
And I stand by what I said....if that deer didn't have antlers on it's head it wouldn't be an issue.

its not about being "right" or "ethical". you are missing the point. it just wouldnt be fun. in my opinion, you would be killing it for the sake of killing it. its not the hunting experience that you think of in your head every night before the next mornings hunt.
To hunt, by definition is searching for prey to kill or capture. Hunting IS killing, plain and simple.

If I only hunted just to get some meat, I would seriously have to dead broke and be living off the land to survive. I love the excitement of hunting. Its not a necessity in my life. Its a leisure activity that I was raised to enjoy. I buy into the calls and attractants and gear and all the crap that goes with it because I enjoy hunting. To me its a sport and shooting a damn deer right out my back door aint sporting.

Nice Deer UM, I can see your point. Id be in the same boat. Maybe if I was set up in a tree a few days later in that general area and he came in, then he might not be so lucky!
I know how it feels though. I posted this a few days ago on someones post. Saturday afternoon and this one comes rolling through the backyard. It just not fair!!!
