I am a Traditional hunter
« on: April 15, 2008, 09:16:00 PM »
This probably isn't the forum for this but they can move it where it needs to go.

It's a profile that was done for a TV Outdoor show.  Except for a little recent footage the rest was shot in 1992.

Great Video Mr. LaClair....You are truly a Man's Man.  After a hard day in the rat race of life that video put a smile on my face and I am ready to get to the woods as fast as I can.

That, is what most of us wish was everyday reality.  Fantastic post! I lived one summer that way and wish I had never given it up.  Good stuff Mr. LaClair, you are a legend living among us.

Interesting Ron.  I used to feel as I think you do/did.  I published a feature story in "Sports Afield" back in the '70's called "hunting the turncoat".  Shotgun (double barrel but not flintlock"  Take a look if  you can find it, I'd like to hear your take on it. Nowadays, at age 62, it's about all I can do to stand the "grind" of working daily; although I still can bench 250 and draw a 60# bow easily for practice.  Mentally I've about reached my tolerance for bs...guessing you know what I mean.  Hunted the Texas Sweat with Curtis and the guys a couple years ago and still 'member it fondly.  Would like to hear from you. !!  Best Wishes!

By the way...the article I refer to above has pics of my Beagle (maybe the best ever welped) "fetching" a snowshoe hare that I had wounded.  God Bless a good Dog!!

Great video. It is great to have a "celebrity" hunter(hope you don't mind that term) that you can look up to. Someone who represents what hunting is/should be all about.
