Who inspired your interest in hunting?

Like many of you, my Dad was the impetus of hunting for me and my brothers. As I learned later, I was responsible for getting him back to hunting after a couple decades long sabbatical. I'm forever thankful for the beginning he gave me and have been blessed to be instrumental in getting my son into hunting (he was 6 months old on his first hunting trip), as well as my grandkids. 36 years later, my son and I will be hunting elk in a couple weeks as we have done (almost) every year.
 
Reading old Field and Stream and also The Field British mag. I would pore over the pictures and imagine. We grew up with air rifles, I only got a firearm of my own when I was 63!

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
