Who was the biggest hunting influence in your life? Have you thought of, or already have taken, another kid or non-hunter under

Great replies guys, keep them coming. I love to hear discussions and stories about the positive side of hunting.

I would have to say my friend that is 13 because he told me all these stories so i asked my dad at least one time a day and he let me go. I would have to say my friend and and my dad.

My mom got me hooked on fishing when I was a little guy just big enough to fish. I got into hunting myself but wasn't until I went with my buddy and his dad to go bow hunting for deer.Never looked back. Now I'm taking my little brothers and sisters with me. Told one of my sisters that if she wore underwear I'd take her hunting with me, and she did.

Louis L'amour, I grew up with a white collar dad, who was never around so I spent a lot of time reading westerns. I read every Sackett book written and wanted to be like the sackett boys. I have started a 4-H archery program since my 3rd trip to the desert, and realizing that my kids need me and so do other kids need their fathers. I now have more than 23 signed up with one family and 4 fathers in the mix. We shoot 3-D and several are hunting now.
