RE: Post-Harvest Celebrations
GregH,you're forgiven haha. I usually brake down deer pics into three categories.
1) Hunter Smiling: The hunter is smiling, obviously proud of the downed animal.
2)Hunter not smiling, but still enthused: Hunter may just not be the smiling type, but you can see in his eyes that he is no doubt excited.
3)Hunter ticked off: Hunter not yet realized he has something to be proud of right beside him, and capable of Kurt Angle like actions in an instance.

RE: Post-Harvest Celebrations
I have been hunting since 1959 when I got my first gun a model 69 Win. 22, that's almost 50 years. I don't get excited, been there and done that. I marvel at what a great 1 shot kill I had just made, like the 125 yd. off shouldershot that my 06 blew the top of his heart away. Next comes the feed back at camp.

RE: Post-Harvest Celebrations
I am more reflective than loud.I think most celebrations are fine as long as there real.I think that the animal is due respect so the over the top stuff is a bit much for me.
The combination of factors that gets me fired up the most is a big deer that I have shot at that shows no sign of a hit and doesn't bleed right away or scalds out of an area like they are on fire.When you get on their blood trail there is a heightened sense of emotion going on.When I come upon a big buck I have shot under those circumstances I am more excited than I ordinarily would be.
