Handing Down Heritage: Hunting for Tradition As
a female hunter I stand out in the duck blind, at
the goose picker’s, or at the shooting range. But
despite never quite fitting in, there are few
moments I cherish more than the quality His bud dies ask him how he ended up with a daughter who hunts. The truth is, when my older sister came along he had hoped the next one would be a boy. But when I showed up he had no other option. “I wasn’t going to
let the chance pass me by to teach my kid how to
hunt,” he always says. So starting at a young age, I
would dress in camouflage and accompany him on early
morning hunts. For the past 25 years it has always
been our bond, our link, our “thing.” Dad’s
dedication to tradition Last summer, a string of
circumstances led me to realize the importance of
rekindling that bond.
From July to September we met every
Thursday evening at our farm so I could practice
shooting clay pigeons (bright orange, round targets
about four inches in diameter that fly through the
air, resembling birds). He dedicated his time—and
certainly his patience—to me and this budding
tradition.
