I hunt to please myself and feed my family
What everyone else thinks isn’t going to stop me or make me feel bad
On a side note
I’ll be hunting with a fast moving 22 calibre this season…..hope this doesn’t make you mad

I've got another one. Why do some hunters feel the need to keep their hunter orange hat on their dashboard year around? Is that a signal I don't know about? lol. I was wondering the same thing, never knew why the hat was up there during hunting season or year around.....is a secret signal I am missing out on?...lol It’s the “Creedmore wave”

It’s human nature and it happens with everything, these are just the ways humans have chosen to be their typical selves with hunting.
People need validation, even the person who will angrily reply “I don’t need validation” is in fact showing their need for it. Some folks, and incorrectly I might add, feel like they’re better if all they do is kill mature deer, or exclusively bow hunt, or saddle hunt etc.
When we die and are giving account for our actions on this planet the Lord ain’t going to say “you know, your faith wasn’t really there but at least you could rip lips like no one else, come on in”
Just sayin

I never realized so many people had shoulder issues until crossbows were made legal.  😆 This also applies lol. nothing wrong with using a crossbow but you don't have to justify it with an injury. Just hunt with a crossbow and go on. Exactly

Some people want to control what others hunt with, but same people don't want the state controlling how they hunt.

I think there’s a thread for tracking dogs in the serious deer forum. Just sayin’.

I'd love to see us go to a more bow hunting oriented system......Gun hunters bloody the woods up far more.

It can be reasoned any way some one wants to and it's still bullsshit I also hate when someone says "Thats not fair to the deer/animal" Im not trying to be fair to the animal, Im trying to kill the animal. My grandpa always said we were going out to try and fool a deer, not we are gonna go out there and give the deer a fair chance.

I try not to put people in groups. I just don't like most people in general.

I never was aware there was so much hating until I got On This site - i would rather b happy and thought hunters were a brotherhood
I heard on here - Did u hunt turkey out of ground blind caise that’s bad. 97% has been no blind but if I use one who cares
If somebody kills a mature deer w gun r a bow - I equally impressed and some of my easiest turkey hunting was hard hunted WMA birds - it had birds was the plus and who cares - i still ain’t the badest dude on the planet and I can assure u - U ain’t either
Just get your mature deer r turkey legally
I killed a 128 in FL sitting on my butt on the ground - ooohhh - no - I can assure u - nobody cares - nobody - so when u give yourself the hero story on how u took the animal - just remember - your only impressing yourself
Get over how u killed it - I don’t care
I do wish u luck - just try some humility
Hunt the wind - leave it better than you found it - love your neighbor as you love your self
We need prayer for our country now more than ever

Hunting should be about what makes you happy. If it's a challenge you are after, hunt with a traditional bow from the ground with a benchmark of a mature buck. If it's filling your freezer, a rifle over a field full of does. It doesn't have to be hard and it doesn't have to be easy but it should be what you enjoy. Don't lecture others if they don't follow your approach to hunting. However you choose to hunt, practice those skills, you owe it to the animal to make a clean, humane harvest.
David Dave has absolutely nailed it!

I'll bet we can all agree that it's amazing to be in the woods. I can be cold, wet, tired... but if I'm in the woods, I'm happy and at peace. If God shows me a big deer, great. If not, it's still a good day in the woods.

As long as it’s legal I really don’t care how people hunt. Some things that are questionable that people do on their own land don’t bother me either. There are really only two things that I see on occasion that upset me. One is folks who will shoot a deer and only remove the backstraps and leave the rest to rot. These folks aren’t even always poachers but most of what I’ve encountered are. If you are going to kill it, for goodness sakes, take the whole thing and put the meat of kings to some good use. The next is related to the first and that’s folks who treat deer hunting like a numbers competition. Won’t let anything walk and proud as a peacock that they’ve killed x number of deer. Meanwhile they are collapsing the herd in a given area. Something that may take years to reverse and effects the enjoyment of the others trying to use the same public resource.

After tracking deer for 6 plus years I think I've met every type of hunter. The good ole boys to the my chit don't stink type. I have nothing wrong with trophy hunters to spike killers. I've tracked 50lb first deer for young folks and old folks first deer. Some of those memories mean the most to me.
