Why do you hunt?

[SaskHunter]

"... I think the real question you should be asking is how many 4 year olds do you think you could beat at once?"

 

[saoneal1]

Family memories
The outdoors
Wild game tastes good

I agree with this

 

[Chama Grande]

Sometimes I just hate having money

 

[Howie]

To be succinct I must say all of the above.

 

[Gut Shot]

Someone who has never experienced the thrill of the hunt can't possibly understand why we do it.

Very interesting how many people can't follow instructions in their reply! Also clearly some immature minds as well.

To those that have followed, some great replies. There obviously isn't a right or wrong answer here but some really good ones for sure.

 

[Wildabeest]

Connection with nature, exercise, challenging my mental and physical limits.

I hunt because it’s the only activity that makes me feel whole.

 

[COHunter67]

Fill the freezers.

 

[vagabond]

It's the solitude for me, and it keeps me humble!

 

[Hyhunter]

how has no one said "hunting is conservation" yet?
I didnt hunt until i went to college for wildlife ecology. T11 but usually starts a good and balance conversation

 

[old270hunter]

Because I’m slightly more domesticated than a bear.

 

[BOHNTR]

I’m a predator.

 

[BuzzH]

Its personal, I hunt for my own reasons.

 

[CPAjeff]

The thrill of the chase, the triumph of success.

 

[Hunter4Life78]

Because I'm on the liver diet...

Seriously, I hunt because Nature's traffic jams involve horns that don't honk at you

 

[Boarmaster]

I hunt for recreation and meat. It keeps me entertained beyond the hunting seasons. I dont expect some people to understand it but expect them to respect my lifestyle and hobbies the same as I respect theirs. I don't really understand why someone would work all year in a rat race and then vacation in a crowd like Disney World or go sit on a beach surrounded by hotels and commercial activity. But if they enjoy it good for them.

 

[gouch]

Because I like it.

The animals I kill are all guilty of something
