Sorry, Wadu. As has been said many times already, your dad sounds like a true American hero and a man we should all aspire to be more like. May he rest in peace.

Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
