Dunno about a serious hunter, I'm kinda the opposite.
Its more about fellowshipping. Spending the weekend at deer camp. Having a good card or dart game. Making plans the hunt the next morning, but never making it because a buddy you havent seen since last season shows up and ya'll one more beer it until the wee hours. Skinning your buddies kids deer while giving the kid high fives whether its a buck, does, spike or yearling. Firing up the grill, cooking way too much food. gathering up a posse to blood trail a huge buck, only to find its a 6pt. Sitting around the campfire and passing the bottle around. Talking about yesterday and 10 years ago. Me, I like shooting critters. Not much on trophy hunting.
