More like: Nothing like spending a week in the outdoors with my Dad, hiking about 50 miles and thousands of feet, and finally harvesting an older buck that will feed my family and certain families I know that are out of work and have nothing in their cupboard. The money that hunters spend gives ranchers an economic incentive to perserve and protect their land from real estate developers, and the animals harvested keep the deer population in balance with the native vegetation so it is not wiped out. Yes, I choose to get my meat this way rather than support a corporate meat farm that is run like a death camp and produces tons of environmental waste.
To each his own, but if that makes me a bad person, so be it.
