For you the "hunt" is the fun part, for others the fun part might be in the cutting and wrapping of the meat, or maybe making summer sausage, or maybe eating biscuits and elk sausage gravy is the most fun part (that does sound like a lot of fun right now). Maybe that easy form of hunting for them (damage shoot) is just a means to an end.

That is the beauty of hunting. It was first devised as a way to get food and we managed to make it a fun pursuit. There are a lot of us maybe not me or you, who believe that the fun factor is actually not as important as the meat factor. As long as you are legal, I don't care what your opinions on the "sport" are.

My opinion is that hunting is a lot of fun, and if I have any luck, a poor unsuspecting animal is going to suffer a violent and painful death because of me. I like fair chase, and being free from fences, and no-trespassing signs etc., and so I hunt in locations that allow that, but I don't ever deny the fact that I really, really want to kill something.
