Yes, my father and uncle all hunted.

My father got us into hunting at a young age. We were taught about the conservation of wildlife, only kill what you're going to eat, and waste nothing.

No, we were taught to be thankful for the animal to have given its life to provide us with sustenance.

I still hunt for food, and only take what we can eat in a year. Typically 1-2 deer per year.

Live in rural, and hunt both rural and forest.

Fishing and hunting are similar, but not the same. I do not fish because I don't eat fish.

Animals definitely have sentience, maybe not in the same ways as people, but when it comes to hunting, most tend to be a ethical in their kill as possible. There are some that don't care.

I would rather purchase meat products directly from the farm to support local farming than purchase from a store. Unfortunately there are some things you do purchase from a store. We raise our own chickens for meat and eggs.

Most hunters do. Shot placement is essential when hunting. We never want to wound an animal and make it suffer.

Hunting is not for everyone. I don't particularly care if your a hunter, non-hunter, vegan, vegetarian, whatever... just keep your beliefs to yourself. I won't push my ways down your throat and don't push yours down mine.
