I just don't get it, the only thing that comes to mind is, WHY [confused]
 
This is part of whats wrong with some of the hunters today. They measure thier outdoor experiance with "numbers" and "points".. Don't get me wrong, its nice to fill the freezer and get a big buck but if your not enjoying the whole "experinace"then you should try something else. To be honest im starting to grow tired of the "we got 15 last week" or " this is my 6th deer of the year" stories... when i was a young hunter, i thought as well it was about the numbers... Boy, was i wrong. Thankfully, I learned for myself that its not. I think this thread here is a direct result of this mindset and over-commercailization of our way of life...
 
Couldnt have said it better swampbuck
Yet you berate a guy for taking a small deer? I shot a small 4 during 6 day. My only buck this year, got a doe during regular bow. I guess I'm not a good hunter since I didn't shoot a monster. I did enjoy the experience of climbing the Kittatiny ridge, still hunting, and jumping a deer that I dropped where it stood. Yeah, that means nothing because it was only a 4. Really, why did you post your original BS post?
 
I have not shot a deer this year. I guess I should be proud of that staement! [rofl]
I thought I was having a bad year wtf I could have just made up a great story except I have been wasting my time really chasing deer![rofl]
 
No big deal on the phony post. Like I'm supposed to give a shi*? He fessed up in the end. yawn.

Swampbuck is right but some things never change. Most young guys will chase quantity and scores until they get more years under their belt. Some old guys never learn.
