Amen Mike....I've paid my dues over the years and I've found you don't need to be soaked to the skin or up to your knees in snow or constantly buffeted by the wind to be a "real hunter"...you don't need to eat half-cooked food or sleep in a leaky tent or ride stock that just retired from the rodeo circuit to be a "real hunter" and you don't need to live in the middle of great hunting opportunities (altough it helps) to be a real hunber.

If someone thinks any less of me because, after nearly 50 years of hunting and shooting, I appreciate a comfortable place to sleep, I enjoy good food someone else prepared and because I can enjoy a fire that someone else made with wood I didn't chop, then I can only say one thing......
