[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 173954, member: 3373"] I'm pretty much beyond treating the hunting and fishing shows like reality TV. I like shooting animals with big horns and big fish. However, I'm also at the age where the size does not determine the trophy. Fishing with grandkids and catching whatever is biting is the fun for me. Hunting with kids and grandkids is the trophy, not the size of the horns. Watching a good dog work birds is as un as shooting them. Don't be mistaken I will shoot any bird the dog puts up but those who hunt with good dogs know what I'm talking about. I don't get excited when someone on TV goes nuts over an average buck, I just kind of tune out the sound and enjoy the moment. I do admit that that task is easier with some of the TV hunters and fishermen. For me, life is more pleasant if I don't let the little stuff bother me. I also don't get upset when someone shoots a buck that I think I would have passed on. That person determines their trophy, not me. In short, I just like to have fun while in the outdoors, for me it's not a mission. [/QUOTE]
