MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • November 6, 2022
To the uninitiated, deer hunting might seem rather simple: find a parcel of woods, scout for signs and then hunt. Those are the ABCs, but as you advance, the lessons become more difficult. In time you begin to learn, and learn to recognize the subtleties and soon you’re ready for a graduate-level course. Even wrong answers and failed experiments teach us something useful. In time we learn and become more proficient but perhaps the greatest lesson is that in the school of the outdoors, graduation day never arrives. ~ Bob Humphrey
