ME!!
I pretty much only hunt pigs and an occasional varmint these days.
You might find this funny but I haven't shot a deer with anything but a camera since about 1996.
I only shot one then because my Step-Dad was getting too old to climb the stand safely and wanted venison.
I do manage my place and have friends and family hunt deer here so I'm not completely out of touch....
One of my "adopted" kids got an 8pt and 10 pt at my favorite pig stand with rifle.
My Daughter-in-Law got a nice 8pt with her bow.
Cheers,
Vern1

On my lease only shot one old mgmt buck. Been 3 year since I have shot a trophy. Still a deer. You can’t sit with us
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

And to me to hunt means to kill. Oh I never said I didn’t kill anything. I shot two hogs, a bull elk and a Sika stag. Just didn’t get a deer

On my lease only shot one old mgmt buck. Been 3 year since I have shot a trophy. Still a deer. You can’t sit with us I really can't sit with you now. Put down a 3" spike and two does this weekend to tag completely out for the year. Gave one of the does to a disabled neighbor that wanted a deer. The spike is all link sausage, the other doe is steak/strap/chili grind.

I almost didn't get a deer, so I can't sit with you because I got a spike the second to last weekend of muzzle loader season. An inch or two higher on the shoulder and I'd be sitting with you guys right now! I sure like the sound of the bang, the huge puff of smoke where you can't see anything, and you hear the "PLOP" when that .54 caliber chunk of lead makes contact.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

Third or fourth year in a row I haven't even bothered buying deer tags. Just haven't felt interested in it for a while.

I’m responsible for the death of probably 150+ whitetails each year. But I can’t afford to kill them myself. I kill aoudads and pigs for meat.

HottDurnnn!! 
Recently got a gym membership, strange folks! I like to show up the roid zombies with my full motion curls with the 55lb. bells. Not their cheater short stroked light weights. It's holarious.
