I started hunting around 20 years ago. A guy down the street didnt have any children and took me under his wing. He would take me hunting if I did well in school. I mowed lawns all summer and bought my first bow. I quit hunting about ten years ago after my bow was stolen. I was driving a 18 wheeler over the road and was never home. About three years ago I got a bonus at work and decided I wanted to do something for myself and bought a bow. One of the best things I could have done. Its great fun and I get to spend a extra 3 monthes hunting. The extra tags help to put extra meat in the freezer.
