Personally I don't have anything against people who hunt, but I grew up with a father who hunts. The one thing I do have a problem with is people who a) kill animals and don't use the meat etc and people who hunt in those controlled environments where you're guaranteed a kill.
I mean anyone who has a problem with hunting but eats meat is a complete hypocrite since in nature at least animals have a chance against humans. My dad has only ever gotten two bucks himself and many years none of his hunting buddies will get anything either.
I wouldn't worry about it, if a girl isn't going to accept you for something so trivial, then there is only going to be more trouble ahead.

I don't have any poblem with it, I've seen a guy who killed and skinned dear. But he and I both do love animals very much and I know he wouldn't do it unless he had to (he would only skin them if someone shot or found one and would get him to do it). I've skinned animals myself.
As long as you didn't kill an animal for fun or were violent and abusive to animals I would not think less of you for it. I don't consider hunting a sport though and I prefer it doesn't happen, but if an animal is shot or found then I don't mind bringing it home. Rather use the meat than waste a life.
I say that that's DAMN COOL!
Just so long as you don't have stuffed things around the house, and don't tell gory stories of your hunts, I'd say that that's pretty cool.
A bunch of people don't like hunting, but I think it's cool. There are some women like me who have grown up around guns, and are perfectly comfortable with guys who have hunted/ hunt.
My family taught me the hard way that whatever you kill you must prepare and eat. We would kill venison and elk to eat instead of store bought, hormone fed, farmed cattle. The benefits are countless and if you don't eat meat that's a very trendy choice, but don't say it's cruel. Cruel would be expecting me to eat soy and tofu to get the nutrients I need.
To sum it all up, I have both eyes in the front facing forward so I eat meat as it should be.
Hunting sometimes is actually good to control the animal population. Plus it would seem hipocrite to be against hunting and eat meat as well. I however think is a horrible thing to do and I would never do it. It is not my posision to judge others.

I don't think 'sports' like hunting are necessarry in the 21st century. Not even with the justification of eating the kill. We already have massive amounts of waste and tangible food supplies. I would not think less of a guy who hunted/does hunt, merely because he is entield to believe and act how he wishes.
Well I'm a vegetarian ha! I don't agree with hunting as a sport, it's sad to me. But I grew up with it as well so you could say I'm used to the whole thing. It's sexy knowing that a guy takes pride in a hobby and is great at it...but not when he's overly obsessed. Keep that in mind:). I see no harm in it, it's the past
I DO have a problem with it. Its just violent. And I hate it when a guy brags about how he "shot that defenseless squirrel/deer/etc.. then cooked it, & had it for dinner". Not cool.
I don't really like hunting, but so long as he doesn't do it anymore it wouldn't be a problem.
i don't like it...it just seems mean. don't see what's fun about killing innocent animals especially deer. I love animals and I want to be a vet=]
i wouldn't think less of the guy.
f*** hunting, that's my attitude.
I actually find guys who hunt quite hot. :)
