How many of us are really hunters?
With that statement I like to define a true hunter but also no disrespect to the one's that fall out of this category.
A hunter in my opinion is a person that kills to have hunted.
Hunting means one knows everything about his quarry.
Knows its habits, paterns,where it lives and travels.
The hunter than plans and sets up a rendezvous and than hopefully if he is a competent marksman finishes the hunt.

So again no disrespect for people with a limited time frame,disabilities,traveling to far of locations etc.
These people must rely on outfiters and guides to do to a great extent the hunting for them and they become the shooters.

People hunting the fringes of parks,roadhunters ( with the exception of antelope ) game reserves and sanctuaries also don't qualify.
And neither do drones, heat seekers, fish finders. lol

So how many of us are really a full fledged hunters?
Just wondering.

I might be a grocery shopper instead of a hunter. Two years ago I entered my friends ranch, passed the house, stepped out of the truck and shot a whitetail before opening the next gate. Of course I have also spent over a week on the tundra after being dropped off by a floatplane. Boned and packed animals over five miles back to camp. Of course looking back, that was just having fun and collecting groceries also. I will ponder that and decide what I am.
 
These **** GIFs hahahahaha.

I'm a true hunter because I don't try to dictate what being a true hunter means lol. I never met a true hunter that needed or cared to attempt to put themselves in that category, or create one that they fit into to feel validated.

I don't know how to posts GIF's and it upsets me though 😥
