My dad got me started in shooting guns..but never got me into hunting.He let me go with him one time before I got behind the gun.That mourning we saw the biggest buck every seen on our property but he wouldn't shoot it.I guess friends and T.V got me into it.I started hunting in 2005.Killed my first dee October 8,2005 and I have yet to kill another deer.

I would have to say that watching my pops shoot squirrels from the back step and getting up early on saturday mornings to watch the hunting and fishing shows on ESPN were my mentors. I was 8yrs old then and now 11 guns and 3 bows later, Ive been hunting every since.
