in reply to: who was your mentor? #55994
I would have to say my dad and my two grandfathers. Not only did they each have different skills to teach me, but everyone of them taught me how to enjoy and not waste all the delicous meat and beutiful hides.
in reply to: Why are small game hunter #'s falling? #54668It sure is a weird deal to me. Because how often do we find our selfs sitting in a tree stand all day watching squirrels wishing we brought blunts with us instead. Or spend some time hunting next to a pond and wish we were duck hunting. But you bring up squirrel hunting to alot of “hard core hunters,” and they look at you cross eyed.
For me hunting is hunting. I love mule and whitetail, but somedays I just want to relax and go for a walk in the woods and see if I can arrow a couple squirrels for a dinner. But most people dont see it that way. Because they have never tried. They watch tv and hunt that way, I know people who only buy products that they see there favorite tv show useing. Alot also has to do with there grown folks not taking them out when they are young, in fear that the youngster will spook a boon and crocket size deer, that they just paid thousands of dollars to shoot. TAKE A KID HUNTINGin reply to: Tree Stands #49174This might not be the answer you are after. But being that I hate to rebuy things. I would stick with what you have. The last latter stand I used I actually cut off the arm rest, becuase it was getting in the way of my string. I also had to practice shooting my bow at a little more of an angle. Just keep working with it and you will figure something out. The nice thing about latter stands is you can keep climbing in and out of them during practice sessions.
