Philosophy

Here's something to think over: can you (and by "you" I mean "me") just go out and learn how to deer hunt?

Think about it. Most hunter's learn from older family/friends/whatever. I don't have that. But the philosophy and practice of deer hunting is out there - on the internet, on TV, in books - to be learned. Can I just do my research and then go perform? Or will I still be missing some vital stuff?

Not that I intend to go it alone. My nephew wants to go with me, and I intend to grill my sister's man pretty hard at some point this summer and make him tell me, if not everything he knows, everything I need to.

Do I have catching up to do? Yes. But I've no doubt I can catch up.
