I remember sitting on the side of a cliff with my brother, being mad at myself on the third day of our hunt.  We had just picked up a bear that morning with our glass and I chose to not try to close the distance with my bow.  Instead, I caught myself just overthinking the […]

As I sit here and write this, we are landed in the month of May.  Turkey season is upon us, spring bear seasons have gone, and more are to come.  I’m actually going through spring bear withdrawals over here myself.  That’s besides the point though.  Even with spring seasons in full effect, I know most […]

Ever since I was a kid, I have been a dreamer.  Always lost in my own thoughts and drifting away into Neverland, not always at the most appropriate of times.  I could sit through an entire class in school and not retain a bit of information because, my mind was simply elsewhere.  The same would […]

Since I was a young boy, I have watched how different walks of life deal with struggle.  From elementary school to the mountains, there is a breaking point that people have.  The point in which they decide to quit and throw in the towel on said activity.  In school it was kids training there butts […]

Growing up I was always a pretty diligent planner.  Uncertainty was not something I welcomed into my life often.  I can remember sitting with my friends talking out our entire day before it unfolded.  Where we were going to eat and what time.  Who’s house we would end up at and when.  What video games […]

Every time I start out in something new, there always seems to be a tinge of feeling overwhelmed.  I think it’s natural.  In the beginning of a new endeavor, you don’t know your backside from your elbow.  The longer down the road you go, the more impossible that very endeavor can seem.  How much defeat […]

I’ve talked in the past about hunters oftentimes being hermits and living in their own world.  We chat among ourselves, preaching to the choir in our little circles, but don’t extend much past that.  In doing so, we generally don’t get any blow back from our beliefs.  The stories we tell to each other are […]
