I agree. I have been on lots of hunts with my husband. Yes he was always looking for the biggest one, so I guess that made them trophy hunts. None of the meat was left on the ground. We either took it all home for the freezer or someone else took it home. Except for the bear, even our Indian guides wouldn’t eat the Bears.

my husband went hunting in mid Michigan every year...a bunch of guys went to the same place every year...they didn't get too many deer, but one of the guys got a bear that was up on 2 legs heading for him...they took the carcass into town and hung it...the following year they had taken the bullet out of the deer (depart. of whatever) and found the guy hunting came and cleared the fellow of charges of killing the bear... They had even tracked down to where the bullets were bought..Several of the guys were all on one side of the clearing and the one the bear went after was the only guy that had a gun....It was bow and arrow season. All of the men ate the venison if they were lucky enough to get one.. One of my son's fixes venison delicious....
