I backpacked in 14 miles, spotted and managed a stalk on him and killed him with my longbow.  YeP was hunting and not shooting. LOL  Gotta admit being able to back up to him wiht the truck would have been more convienent. :)

I have yet to harvest a deer :(... so I am neither

 :yeah:

Maybe in the late season.   :dunno:


Hang in there guys. I don't even hunt deer till the late season, haven't but maybe once or twice for 13 years. Best time to go is the late season. And to answer the question, when I was younger I shot a couple. For the last 14+ years they have all been hunted. The last 3 have been out of a tree stand.  :IBCOOL:

Now....tot he time I shot one......went hunting with Idabooner.  We decided to abandone the orange patch, stopped got a cup of coffee at the house and headed up the road.  There was a nice buck standing there.  Got out, climbed off the roadbank and killed him.  Probably the only set of bones I don't have anymore.  Let thte dog chew on them.   They meant less to me than ebay bones.  That hunt is now a story though, always a joke.

 Actually I think this question is better answered by those you hunt with rather than by how you view yourself. I would venture to guess that some of your hunting partners may have a difference of opinion. :dunno:

The real question here is: Why do you hunt and what do you expect to get out of it?

If it's purely for meat then shooting something next to the road is always going to be an acceptable means of obtaining that goal. Other people might seek satisfaction from accomplishment in a variety of ways...

being pretty new to this hunting game... right away i switched to archery and i loved it(THE HUNT) and ive been successful one out of 3 years of hunting...but it seems so damn competitive both for animals, and hunting grounds now... i think i might just start putting in for tags, both here and other states then only actually hunt if i get drawn for something.....  :dunno: :twocents:   i love hunting, i just dont have enough free time to actually get to do it and waste my time with combat hunting areas....

I hiked my ass off last year, 9 days to get my deer, 2 miles from any road. My favorite type of hunting.
