Anthony-

Yes, ignorance is unfortunately an epidemic that we constantly find ourselves up against. While our most personally fulfilling moments are usually spent afield, we do need to take time to unite with fellow hunters on edifying and educational levels in addition to the all-too-fun (and priceless) swapping of hunting tales. Are your works available through Safari Press (SCI)?

I'm curious as to whether you referred to HSUS, PETA, and others to address how the hunter would respond to radical viewpoints without just saying "That's stupid" in frustration.

It's hard (and not credible) not to have an expansive reference pool. I like Swan's style. Especially fond of his "In Defense of Hunting." The motivations and drive of the hunter are so easily distorted. It can be disheartening. If we can somehow funnel the passion we share for the hunt into preserving the sport, our worst fears may indeed be allayed.

Thanks for your prompt response.
