I hear ya, my dad has always been a fisherman, and quit deer hunting in college. He's a really successful businessman and I really admire him for his hard work ethic, but it seems like he'll never make time to hunt with me. Whether or not he thinks he is "above it", is beyond me, but I would love to hunt with him. I had to take it up with my buddies, and I will always be thankful for them showing me the way of the woods.
