I did get your message Mr. Higgins, on family and friends while hunting,and fully understand it. My fiance has gone out into the woods with me many times over and they all out rank my best buck kills just because she was there. They still remain that way today.

The people I have met along the way, while hunting, have been amazing. I luckily get to hunt with long time high school friend HNI Justin every year, which is always a good time. Hunting has introduced me to Todd Graf, our fearless leader, who has become a friend since HNI started in 1995! The first time we hung out was opening day that same year when we hunted alongside each other. Last year I introduced another long time friend, Jeremy, to bow hunting and this will be his second season at it.

I didn't need your book to tell me what I already knew.. but I got the message when reading it Don.
