Wow, thats a lot of work, good on you. I mentored my son and his cousin so I know what having a new hunter is like. Having started myself in an era where there was no internet to google the answer, and none of my relatives hunted, I learned from my mistakes. I was able to get them each up in trees with one connecting and one still trying.
It is a great feeling to do this. More importantly, teaching the best ways, practices and mistakes I made to ensure new hunters have the best experience. You can only warn so much how loud/shocking/quickly a grouse can burst out the bush...lol. Made for some good laughs. But nothing like seeing someone connect with game, the happy goofy looks and giddy rewards.Quote:

Next year will do the same. This will all depend if I am elected in next spring in the Ontario Provincial Election. I was looking at the fall house schedule...does not look good for early fall hunting season, but deer will be OK.
I am running in Nepean for the Ontario Libertarian Party. My main competition is Lisa McLeod..someone who I used to support.
