I grew up one of five boys and although my parents weren’t lacking at all in the areas of love and guidance, they didn’t make a lot of money.
My dad loved to take us boys fishing and we had one shotgun to share between all of us to shoot rabbits and squirrels.
Deer hunting just wasn’t affordable and, although we were raised in southeast Missouri where several of the schools close the week of deer season, I didn’t grow up deer hunting.
I left my hometown for 10 years to get an education, establish a career and marry my wife (of 30 years now).
