RE: How much of hunting is confidence
good question....
Hunting produces confidence....Just being out there is success in itself. If we learn something everytime we go out, small or big, it is a successful hunt.
I like my bringing my daughters with me so they can become more confident in life. They may not bring home a harvest every time. But, they are becoming confident in ways that other kids have no chance of seeing, knowing, or understanding, that never get to go into the woods.
Enjoy the journey.....
