Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Just a doe, eh? Well this was special to me….  The last evening of the last day.  I was hunkered down behind a sagebrush 15 yards from a game trail coming out of the deep dark canyon. The doe came out on a trail 50 yards away.

I was carrying a homemade longbow I made - arrows I made  - arrows tipped with a broadhead I made from a saw blade.

The doe was grazing slowly, unalarmed. My hand / eye coordination, honed by thousands of practice shots figured she was 50 yards away which coincidentally is my point of aim at full draw. I drew slowly, anchored and picked the spot, the release was clean and I watched the red and white feather fletched shaft fly true to hit behind the shoulder just a tad high. She fell right at that spot without taking a step… spined, she dropped like a rock. Not a ‘trophy’ in the grandeur sense. But one of my most satisfying hunts.

My best buck just happen to have the two men who taught me everything in life. Best day a hunter could have asked for.
