[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5866967, member: 2805"] Honestly, I just don't understand. When I started turkey hunting back in 1988, something just clicked in my soul. I just could not imagine NOT turkey hunting. I don't give a crap whether I kill one or not, but I just HAVE to beat them. And even better, I LOVE it when one beats me (as long as it wasn't me beating myself... Im pretty hard on myself if I screwed up the hunt). There is nothing better than besting the same bird that has bested you 4 or 5 times before. But after 4 or 5 times, it gets personal... almost vindictive. I don't like losing to the same bird more than 4 or 5 times. I'm not even myself. At that point I lose respect for that Rosie O'Donnell but I can't walk away. (That's why I'm not going to hunt the bird I was on this morning tomorrow morning.... a few more days with him and I'll be setting out claymore mines to blow him up). I guess all this rambling is just to say you either get it, or you don't. And it's ok if it's just a fun pastime/hobby. That's the way 99.9% of folks are. It's still fun. But the other 0.1% of folks understand on a deeper level what I'm saying. [/QUOTE]
