Matt,I agree with you 100%.I too hold fond memories of hunting with my father and all the oldtimers at our old hunting camp.As the years have passed so have most of the old timers,we lost enough to where we could no longer keep up with the lease on the property.Although for a few years after, my dad and I still hunted together his age got him to the point that he was no longer able to go with me anymore,I continued to hunt for a few years without him but it was never the same.I got to the point that I no longer wanted to go myself,that was untill my own son was old enough to learn this wonderful sport that is so full of tradition, did I have that same excitement that I had as a boy.I hope that my son and I can form the same kinda bond and love for our sport that my dad and I had.

There are to many kids today that will never no the excitement of the old deer camp.We need to do everything we can to pass down these traditions. What type bow,gun ect. is not as importiant as passing on the tradition and love for our sport,what you use don't matter as long as your hunting,and passing on the tradition!
