Default RE: Born a hunter?


I like this one...

Shane is moved by some inner understanding of nature that most folks just don't have, and will never have, no matter how hard they try. I have seen him time and time again make predictions about game movements that were just flat scary about how dead on they turned out to be. Alot of folks try to distill hunting down to a science, but it just ain't so. Hunting is an art, and like all forms of art, you got it or you don't. Out of the ones that do have it, there will be a few that are truely great, and just uncanny in their ability.
That's moreor less along the lines I was thinking. There's that little "it" factor that seperates the good/great hunters from the rest.Someone can have all the scientific data in the world and know every aspect of deer behavior and patterns, BUT even then they may only achieve a certain level of hunting ability IMO. I think there are people that are naturally so in tune to nature and hunting. Kind of like that 6th sense that deer have. Somehow they just know and understand on a consistent basis. I also believe there are others that can't and will never have that ability because it can't be taught. Their book knowledge and field experience can only take them so far. JMO
