There are several parts of the hunt that I enjoy.
Just being outdoors, witnessing nature in it’s natural habitat, and I also enjoy harvesting a big animal. Or after a hunt asking my family members what they saw and exchange stories. I love hunting so much, I have never skipped a hunting season I have skipped soccer games so that I could go hunting. There are bad parts of hunting too. Like having to fill feeders, or check the stands for wasps. I also hate not seeing anything during hunts, or not being able to take a shot at an animal. Hunting is kind of a competitive sport between me and my brother, it’s always about who got the bigger and better animal. So far I have the biggest doe and buck. I am so proud of myself for always getting the bigger and better deer. My first doe weighed a whopping 145lbs, and my first buck was about three and a half years old it was a nine point and it weighed 175lbs. I have unfortunately never harvested a hog. A wild hog is one animal that I would love to
harvest. I have gotten so close to harvesting a hog. One time me and my dad were walking back from a night hunt and we walked up on a huge pack of hogs. But unfortunately before I could get my rifle off my back they all ran away. I’ve only shot at two hogs before both at long distance and I missed. I got really mad but then I realized that there will always be times for me to harvest a hog.
