A heartwarming & heart wrenching story. I most certainly can relate.

Another very interesting story you won't read in the MSM.

My apologies for the multiple posts. Just very slow service and I thought my post was dropped.

Did you kiss your bottom line? Also

Too many people think that hunting is a "walk in the park". It's a tremendous experience. It takes a lot of planning and effort. It takes practise and discipline. It involves knowledge of game, firearms (or bows), migration habits, timing, habitat and post-kill (if you're lucky) game handing procedures.

It is also an industry that employs untold numbers of people - Natural Resources, sporting supplies and hunt camp operators.

Hunters (and anglers) are also the best resource for information on game/fish numbers, game health and weather/situation reporting. This allows for the best management of game populations to maximize health and prevent uneccessary starvation or depopulation. We are the real conservationists.

That was a great story to read. It's too bad he didn't start earlier, however, hunting is obviously not for everyone - although most big city folk unaware of the level of participation.

It really is a sport. Not all will agree, but it's true.

The story pulls the sentimental strings.

Would it have sounded as good with the more traditional native hunting practices in BC with the pickup truck , the flashlight, the hipowered rifle and a twofour of beer in the back with your buds?
