[QUOTE="osok-1k, post: 2235703, member: 106259"] Tom Brown for real "hunting". His books on woodlore, stalking and living off the land have been good for me. Boy Scouts in the early sixties taught us to walk quietly, read sign and be smooth but my greatest influence by far is my grandfather. He was a true 1st generation US born Viking born in 1890, northern Minnesota when you had to hunt and farm successfully to survive. He bought a Winchester 94 30-30 in 1900 and hunted to feed neighbors and families who were in need as well as his own families. He became well known throughout the area as a go-to young man for anything one needed help with. He served in the Navy WWI in France, became a G-Man during prohibition and stayed with the US Treasury Dept. until he retired in 1960. He taught me much more than how to hunt, he taught me about life, integrity and how be a man where if your word alone was no good, a hand shake didn't matter. He never owned a piece of camo but knew that good wool was king of cold weather and his Woolrich red and black plaid coat broke up his outline enough to work. His 30-30 was plenty of gun for everything from bear, moose, mule deer and whitetail. I miss him still. [/QUOTE]
