[QUOTE="DeerCamp, post: 5777230, member: 21011"] If you didn't feel a need to reflect after that, I'd be concerned. We love hunting, but we also deeply care for the animals. Death is part of the cycle, but no one wants to see an animal suffer. Years ago I shot a doe and accidentally hit mid spine with a muzzleloader. She drug herself off with her front legs. I reloaded and caught up to he in the brush and she looked at me, inky her face showing. So I shot. The bullet entered under the eye and exited behind the ear. I was out of ammo, and it took another 5 minutes to die. I didn't hunt for weeks afterwards. Time to reflect here and appreciate the gravity of what we are doing is normal. Sorry this happened brother. [/QUOTE]
