Then I shoot em with my center fire rifle or my compound bow. Or I go to public land and try to pattern a deer that is influenced by 55 factors tht I have zero control over, only to have the deer that I do see come in downwind as he is hauling arse confused by the retarded amount of activity in the woods. Then I call that hunting and refuse to acknowledge that it was more like drawing a lucky number than patterning.
why they do what they do, what certain things they eat, when they eat those certain things,

I only acknowledge deer killed with a recurve bow, anything else isn't hunting

I'm a meat hunter and just throw the racks away (not that I deer hunt much). I want to take my son elk hunting, but he's going to want a bull. I'd prefer shooting a cow. I can understand somone's desire for a trophy, it's just not my thing.

This was 20 years ago. It was a very nice place and first class. Not that it makes a difference.

Here are some Arkansas deer from this season. There are 5 or 6 from Turner Neal (it's a co-op) hunting club that score over 150".
I actually know several of those guys. I've personally seen 2 really nice ones this year while hunting NEA ag fields. One a 140 or more 8 and one 12 that would have gone 160+. Have trail cam pics of one and one was a stranger. But our deer density isn't what it is further north and those are the exception not the rule.

Can I be a salesman for you? I don't have enough money for a 180 in my current position

I was watching that show Sasquatch on TV, the dude that hunts in buckskin and shite. Yeah, they showed a close up of his hound baying a mountain lion, the dog had a Garmin tracking collar on

That's exactly why I said I don't hunt deer much. I'm a fan of rare red meat. Only the blackstrap comes home with me. The rest I give to friends and family. And, it's why I said I want to shoot an elk cow. Elk is delicious, deer not so much, to ME.

Have you ever been more defensive about your "hunting"?
I hunt 90% public land Though, I have hunted high fences in La, TX, and MS. Not one of them bred deer. They managed the population through hunting and supplement feeding. None had tags, none were penned. All of them were minimum of 2000 acres. I didn't pay for 1 of them, and was never guaranteed a kiil or even a sighting. The extent of picking a deer out of a book, was looking through the owners trail cam photo album, just as a non-fence hunter would do.
and yet, I have never killed a trophy buck behind a fence
I have even been skunked on high fence hunts where I haven't even seen a deer, numerous times. I have killed 1 trophy buck that is on my wall. He is a main frame 10 with a twin kicker on each G2. He was killed in the middle of a marsh/swamp in St. Tammany parish(I still haven't seen a bigger buck come out of SE ST). There was no feed, no fence, no cameras, nothing but marsh and a ladder stand placed in a right spot, and me being there because I had a hunch they were chasing does the day after Thanksgiving in 2003.
You are right, there is a range of hunting.

I tried elk sausage for the first time a couple months ago.
Makes deer seem
But I still love me some green onion from DD.

My neighbor (mandeville) showed me some monster bucks on his wall that he shot in the 70's. They were shot in mandeville, too.
Not a fan of sausage, but you should try the different cuts of elk steaks. Elk is my favorite big wild game, with reindeer coming in second.

I have pictures on my phone from a trail cam in Madisonville that would make yalls jaws drop.
