    You fulfilled your obligation to yourself, you shot two and recovered all the meat to fill your freezer.. As you have said, two was too much so next time, take one for the freezer. As Shearer stated above your call, some shoot for trophy's, some shoot for food.
    You haven't done anything wrong.

    Average-Lad.....Lets say you are the ripe young age of "x"

    Hunting ethics may / have / did apply in the past?

    But just do what your mind tells you to do.

    In general as it has been stated on this forum many times, its never been so good for animal numbers.
    As above comments just shoot the things.

    Be interesting to know on D.O.C. land what has the most amount of deer been shot in a day by a ground hunter doing deer pest control work in recent years?
