I got a feeling most of them would have taken up baking cookies instead.
im 18 and i feel like im hunting in the 70's. I just hung up a baker climbing stand, im sure most people who hunted back in the day know what they are. My dad has showed me many tips and tricks he has learned from hunting his whole life. From the stories he tells seems like going to deer camp was a lot more fun back then with tons of buddies and family, and more of a bonding time than to get monster buck.
