It was awesome just to see it and know that I won the game. That being said from then on never felt the need to shoot one. Now having the chance to trap one is a whole different story.

There are many times I have watched a deer or turkey and counted it as a kill. Yet never took the safety off. Sometimes the experience of getting close is good enough for me as well. As far as animal I never seemed interested in a bear. Neat to see but no desire to hunt.

I probably wouldn't shoot a housecat. One of my grand-daughters is a cat person, and would never forgive me.

On my farm, by chasing off birds of prey, they save me money. I don't care if other people shoot crows. I know that crows can be a nuisance, but I like them and enjoy seeing them. I always like seeing crows and pigeons, while driving around. Keith
