I never understood that either, it sickens me, but it seems like most hunters have an (after hunt) party. That's why I said most hunters think hunting is "fun" .

I'm sorry, but as far as I'm concerned hunting is NOT a sport, as Paul Rodriguez once said “Hunting is not a sport. In a sport, both sides should know they're in the game.”

Or, "if hunting was a sport the animals would have guns too"

Or "A sport is a physical competition between 2 or more parties who mutually agree to a set of rules by which their relative success will be determined. I missed the part where the deer signed up for this ****. They are trying to survive and you are trying to kill them. The prey is not deliberately constrained by any set of rules. This is not a game."
