I was on my 5th tour to Iraq and Matt kept talking about hunting and i asked questions and said the normal what did dear do to you BS! (i was to scared to admit i wanted to learn but afraid to ask) i spent hours lisitning to him talk of trapping to hunting deer and wild boars (sounds like i had a man crush). We had a conversation and i told him i would buy a bow and learn how to hunt once we returned to the states. Well as always fate is a total C*&^ and Matt and the crew of my my MRAP (Bomb proof truck) hit a IED (Improvised Explosive Device) I ended up ;losing the tendons in my right Shoulder and being the only one walking away (Stretcher) Ever since i am focased on being the hunter he was and what he wanted to be. so as corny as it sounds im living my life and trying to be the hunter he wanted to teach me to be. sorry i depressed you but i figured an honest anser was warranted!
Life can be hard at times... God spared you for a reason.
