At least not the way we grew up, chasing deer in the big woods.
I get fired up when bucks or even does come in that I don't plan to shoot.

About the only thing that doesn't fire me up much any more are the little 4 and 6 pointers.

One person can't decide what takes the "fun" out of hunting for anybody else. If a person gets a rush and enjoys passing on good bucks, then that's what they should do. I get a rush every time a deer is in front of me. Even if I know I'm not gonna shoot it, my heart still gets to pounding.
