Summary: TweetI should have called it without a gun or a bow or a trap or anything but that title would be too long. Today’s show is an extension of a listener question I answered last week about learning to hunt when you had no one to teach you. No family, no friends, no mentors, no one. My first advice is try to find a mentor of some level and make some hunting friends but even that has limits. I will tell you why some people seem unhelpful today as part of this show. It certainly isn’t personal!
