Any non-hunters here? I've literally never been hunting.

Born and raised in south Louisiana, fished all my life and love it. I never had an interest in hunting even though my dad and brothers duck hunted religiously. As a young boy I remember feeling bad for the ducks when my dad was cleaning them so I never wanted to shoot one. I had no problem throwing a flapping trout into his icy grave in the igloo however. And no way would I ever shoot a deer or other animal.

I guess I'm a pussy.

Meh, you can keep a slightly smaller man card.



Had you grown up here and never fished or hunted then

Never been but I've been fishing tons of times all over and we always had guns in the house.

I gave it a go when I was young but it just wasn't for me. Freezing my balls off while keeping both quiet and still never appealed to me.

But this wasn't the reason

I'm just not a fan of waking up super early and sitting in the cold.

My Dad also isn't a hunter.

Love fishing.

Grew up here too and only been gator hunting a couple of times, which is more of a drinking sport. Zero interest in hunting for deer/duck. Too early and too cold.

I'm not going to call you a pussy, but I do find it really odd why some people have a problem with killing some things and not others. I don't get it. It is purely emotional. Why are you so emotional about some animals and not others?

Love to fish. Doing that since hell I could bait a hook



Never in my life have I wanted to shoot any type of living animal. Ever. I'll take cow over deer or any other type "hunted" meat.


Just me.

I don't think those who shoot animals for sport or "food" are trashy or anything....

Hunted quail with my grandpa as a child. Deer hunted a few times. That's about it.

But thank God for the hunters and their stockpile of guns. They will save us when the inevitable societal breakdown happens.

At least Obama made it legal for you non-hunters to get married

I like small game and pheasant/grouse hunting, but sitting in a stand or blind in the freezing cold doesn't do it for me

I'd pick fishing over hunting if I had to choose. I enjoy getting out the house and going to the camp more than the actual hunting

Born and raised in Acadiana, never went hunting before. Wouldn’t mind doing it just don’t know anyone that’s into it.

I don't hunt much anymore. Maybe a duck hunt every few years. I really only like saltwater fishing too. Catching a 4 lb bass just isn't that exciting once you've landed a 100 lb tuna

Do you feel bad for the pig or cow when you eat a bacon cheeseburger, because their lives were 100x worse than a wild duck or deer that was hunted.
