RE: Why say "harvest" when Hunting?!
I usually don't say harvest, I will say "taken" sometimes it just fits better than " I killed". Depends on towhom Im talking to. If Im talking on here, I sometimes say "take" sometimes I say kill. But when Im talking to the non-hunter, I will say take or arrowed,etc unless they say kill, and sometimes they do.

I went to Vietnam for two yearsand "Harvested" some dinks.[8D] I don't harvest anything with the bow or gun. I just shoot them, kill them or some variation there of.LOL

I always say, wacked!!!
Harvest is the word most Fish and Wildlife Org.'s use. To them it is a harvest. They do the math, figure out how many tags, what kind of tags etc. etc. They are not the ones, so to speak, in the field doing the killing part. They are the overseers of the farmers, which is us, who in turn harvest wildlife populations down to their estimated numbers.
Now hand me a glass of Brandy, fetch my slippers and my pipe. Tomorrow we shall harvest.
That was great whoever was poking fun with that!!!!!

i usually use the word "harvest" vs. "kill" when i'm talking to people who are apprehensive about hunting. "kill" is sorta harsh on the ears to someone who isn't used to it
