My Dad brought my brothers and I up North Michigan every chance he could, which was like every other weekend from Detroit! Some of the best times of my life I'll never forget! He introduced me to the outdoors! We would go up for the weekends cut firewood, fish, shoot guns, hunt and just hang out with his buddies! We did this thru out my youth! I got the itch one day to try bowhunting, saved my money and bought my own bow, none in my family bowhunted, my buddy and I would go out and bowhunt, not know what the hell we were doing, just doing it! I pretty much taught my self how to bowhunt and shoot. I can say I've came along way, I just wish my father was still around to enjoy the outdoors with my son and I, he passed away 2.5 years ago! Sure do miss him! We talk everytime I'm on stand!
