The No-Shame Thread

I won’t get up to hunt out my back door unless I sleep on the couch.

I hate my best friends wife. He hasn’t hunted or fished one time since they got married 5 years ago.

I love shooting does with my bow. The only thing that motivates me to hunt is good bucks. Makes no sense

I’d like a hunting partner. I like hunting alone.

I hate hunting with my brother-in-law but do it be nice.
 
I never tell my wife how much I spent on hunting and hunting accessories. Flip side I don’t ask her about her purchases either. Works great!

I spend more time during my work day surfing hunting sites than actually working. It’s gotten worse during COVID.

I look forward to 90 Day Fiancé on Sunday night waaaay more than I do football. Haven’t missed an episode yet.

My wife has worked one or both of my days off for as long as we’ve been married. When my son was born that was an end to mobile hunting for me. I cut had elevated blinds six feet to the floor so I could reach to slide him in his car seat into the blind before I climbed up. That’s how I spent most of my hunts. He was born in March and that October he was in the blind. As he got older and could climb and move less the blinds stayed but I added ladder stands and hang on. This year he’s saddle hunted public but he much prefers his box blind overlooking a food plot. He doesn’t love it like I do. He was also never been asked if he wanted to go until he turned 13 last year. Now he goes when he wants and stays home when he doesn’t. I never felt guilty about it.

This with both kids....when they were old enough to be home by themselves I’d ask if they wanted go and I was always happy when they said yes.
My 18 yo has never killed with any weapon but a bow. This weekend he went by himself, killed a doe, cleaned it and then cooked my wife and daughter dinner....all by himself.
Kinda proud!!!

I saddle hunt because I have more fun hunting that way, not because it makes me any better of a hunter.

X2. I hunted a ladder stand on Sunday morning for the first time in a year. Quiet, safe, quick, easy, comfortable. Boring.

Murder is defined as an human unlawfully killing another human. Deer are not humans therefore you’re just killing them. Glad y’all got some animals to kill otherwise I’d be worried.

I honestly think hunting season helps keep the murder rate lower than it might be if we didn’t kill large game.

The “buck fever” we experience, if you experience it, is because deep down we know it’s wrong to kill.

I believe some people just need killin and because I don’t want to goto prison it builds up all year and I take it out on wildlife!!!

I think just the opposite about buck fever. I think it’s because we’re tapping into an ancient primal feeling that’s long been bread out of us since the hunter gatherer days. But it’s still there and we tap into and feel it in the moment. For me it’s a rush that can’t be matched.

I’ve always felt the same since the first time I harvested any game.

Same here. I get nearly the same rush out of shooting a doe, or any other game too like you said. Not because I get off on killing something, because it feels like the most natural thing humans are meant to do. It’s like you’re doing the very thing you are by nature- being a predator.

I HATE Osso Bucco

I pee outside more than inside

I prefer Evan Williams and Busch Lite over all else

I am shamelessly a rural redneck

I can honestly say that I walk past my bathroom to go onto the back porch and pee more often than not. I also have issues when at an outside party and someone says the bathroom is inside .........
I also peed on a hawke this season, it must have thought the sound was a chipmunk or something and went after it..... funny thing was it kinda just let it happen after it realized nothing was there.....

This 1000%. It’s not a successful hunt unless I kill at least one armadillo. I even have a special arrow in my quiver for that purpose only...
