I only hunt for food now and have come to regard the wild environments as my true spirtual home and it keeps worthwhile values well apart from the madding crowd. I love watching all the different greens yellows browns and hues of the unspoilt places and all the life it supports. Watching a beetle or a kaka or deer, it makes no difference and always a pleasure seeing them go about their business.

Great Post Woody - sums it all up for me also. Only kill what I can eat. Just watch the animals the rest of the time and enjoy being outdoors.
