Breaking the Silence
Many years ago there was a time when I would hunt with my dad and younger brothers. Oh what times those were, being able to spend time out in the woods, enjoying time spent with family, bringing back precious meat to help feed the family so we didn't have to spend an arm and a leg for beef, and just getting away from the ever so crowded life that can be found in just about every city out there. However, once I moved away from my family and started doing things on my own, things have taken a much different path than what I am used to.
