[QUOTE="D B Cooper, post: 197795, member: 11000"] AJ, Congratulations! You have ethics and you respect your quarry. You are a true hunter. While reading I began wondering if I had posted this. My wife isn't anti by any means. We are both animal people, both country raised, and never without a couple of dogs, cats, birds or other assorted critters. She does offer a mild protest at times about my hunting addiction. I told her that it's in my blood, but if I ever shoot an animal and don't feel remorse about taking it's life, I'll quit. Great post... Keith, The first deer that I killed was also with a .35 Marlin. I got excited and tried to shoot a big Blacktail doe in thick brush. When it walked out of the brush, I didn't even stop to look, I fired. It tumbled down the hill for quite a ways. When I got to it, I saw that it wasn't the doe but her yearling, not much bigger than a dog. The doe ran down and stood about 20 feet away bleating for the yearling. It nearly ended any desire I had for hunting ever again. [/QUOTE]
