I HATE trophy hunting. I'm an avid deer hunter. Been hunting for 35 years.

Nearly every year shoot a 1.5-2.5 year old buck, because that is what I like to eat.

I get that the funds help local economies in these countries fund conservation, but it still makes me want to puke.

Again, we all hate that guy, including us hunters. It just is a slippery slope. Much of anti-hunting propaganda is done with such "no-brainer" stories, and before you know it, your form of hunting, including meat hunts will be under attack.

over here, aspiring hunters are taught NOT to smile when taking a picture with your kill.
It shows little respect and decorum.
