"I have quit deer hunting. I don't enjoy the experience as much as I used to. I get much colder much quicker anymore. I also have grown tired of eating venison. I don't take any game I don't intent to eat."

Same here...it's ducks, pheasants and wild turkeys from now on.

Here in CT there is just no "sport" in deer hunting anymore.

I can go out to my back porch and throw rocks at them munching on the apples fallen out of my apple trees.

I can go out at dusk any night now... and drive around for 1/2 hour or less near my home and absolutely HAMMER a deer or two with my truck without even halfway trying. There are just so many of them around here it is a serious road hazard. Why waste a bullet when I have a chunk of 6 inch channel iron for a front bumper.

A nice clean shot is better. Who'd want to eat meat that is all bloody? Yuk! May as well just pick up the road kill.

Venison harvested from a vehicle impact likely won't taste as good because of the internal organs being traumatically smashed into each other and releasing chemicals within the body. A good shot with a rifle/slug gun followed by proper field dressing yields the best results for the freezer!

I used to go deer hunting with my boss, but I got tired of having to be the one to carry the decoys.
