Harvest is a no nonsense word for responsibility.  So no I did not kill because just a deer in the woods.  Now, can agree it might make people wannabe killers based on other comments here, but in reality not killers.  Sorry for not being in the "wannabe" crowd.

Harvest and Responsibility have zero ties.  :sry:

Now Harvest and Sensitivity they most certainly go hand in hand.  :tup:

You could say you got a "hole in one".

Fruits and vegetables are harvested. Game animals are killed. No need to sugar coat it, in my opinion.

Your a deer slayer / killer / life ender / smiter...i.e. I hope you get the point. You killed it. It's 'life blood' was drained BECAUSE YOU POKED IT REALLY HARD WITH AN ARROW OR BULLET. It didn't say, "oh how awesome I'm being harvested!" It probably bleated...pumped...tried to scamper off, fell over, bled out, and died. You killed it!!!!! Killer!!!!!!! And most important of all, it's OK. Good job! Congratulations! We are not harvesters...I don't farm deer. I seek to deprive them of their life and habitat...err, change their habitat to resemble my freezer. I don't save their seeds...yuk...I don't replant for next year...I'm a killer, and am totally comfortable with that. Man up, enjoy the meat, or drop it off at my house and swear off hunting...er, killing! Either way...no more of this nonsense...  :rolleyes:

Actually, I'd say "responsibility" is a no-nonsense word for responsibility...  you are the one here with such a personal issue with the word kill here.  What's nonsense Is your ridiculous refusal to accept kill as what you do when you take a life.  The rest of these people are replying to your posts with honesty about what we do.  You could try being honest about your role Iin the hunt yourself Instead of going all PC and trying to get people on here to agree with you on renaming It... Rather, you decide to accuse people of being wannabe's if they dont agree with you.  Interesting choice.  At first I thought you were a knucklehead, then came to think you may have started and partook in a valuable discussion.  But you're back to knucklehead since you obviously aren't willing to even listen to what people are trying to tell you.

You do realize also that they kill cows pigs sheep goats etc for the grocery bins?  When you take an animal to the slaughter house they first go to the kill pens, thats the penning area they are in prior to being shot in the head with a bolt, a gun, or in a kosher or halal establishment they have the neck slit open with a knife thats been blessed.  I do not know of any form of meat that can become food that hasn't undergone being killed.

When we try to use words we think are kinder and gentler we simply remove ourselves from the entire realm of death which displaces us from understanding and valuing life.  When I hear people say people no longer value life I think its because they have sheltered themselves and sugar coated death. 

call it whatever you want but you still have killed an animal.

kill, harvest,let the air out of, dirt nap,your all wrong...I simply send my animals to the other side..A place where they roam free,no arrows, bullets cars or trains.Where Bob Ross paints them next to happy little trees and babbling brooks.Where the rut is year round,and all the doe's give it up with no hassle..where game cams always makes them look unworthy,and feeders never run out of food,and are never hunted over..A place where people on hunting sites always get along,even the waterfowl hunters :chuckle: :chuckle:  This concludes my thoughts for the day,Good day and God bless..........


now Im gonna go kill some frigging yotes :yike:

You have to kill something living in order to harvest the meat.

When I cut the head off my rooster today I doubt he cares if I use the work kill or harvest.
