My Dad got me into shooting and then hunting birds a few times. I played AAA hockey here in Canada from the time I was 12 or so..... till I went to university. That just meant I had no time to hunt. I kleft university and the seed that my dad sowed was growing. I moved to Winnipeg and got a job at SIR.... now cabela's canada. I started to hunt hardcore. I'm only the second bowhunter in my family, as my uncle bowhunts but he lives in Ontario like a 12 hr drive from here. I guess I'm saying my Father sowed the seed and I nurtured it. I love to hunt. Most of family looks down on my hunting addiction.
