I started hunting when I was 11 and 58 years later, I'm still at it. Back then, we mostly hunted quail, rabbits or squirrels and seldom even saw a deer. I got serious about hunting deer in my 20's and never tried hunting elk until my early 50's and really wish I had started earlier. At 69 I can no longer climb mountains in CO where we hunted for 10+ years so now, I hunt deer, hogs and occasionally turkey. While I can't claim to be exclusively a meat hunter, although I have filled my freezer several times over with venison from hunts in OK, TX and SD. I still prefer to stop and stalk but the older I get, still hunting is becoming more attractive.
