@Rocky Zeien I’m right there with ya!
👋 Hey Guys!...Let's Take The Time To Introduce Ourselves...
My name is Jenn Richardson, my husband, Grant Richardson and I created this group, TradBowhunter - Ethical Predator. We are from Ontario, Canada, I have had a love for the outdoors since I was little. My grandfather being a conservation officer in the United States and my other grandfather a trapper here in Ontario. I have been in Law Enforcement for over 26yrs, love the outdoors, marketing and business so decided to put all three together! This is a passion piece for Grant and I...My hubby being the subject matter expert with Traditional Bowhunting as well as an author, podcast host and 3rd generation traditional bowhunter. We wanted to bring like minded people together and create a place to share their experiences with traditional bowhunting. ----------------- Hey folks! Grant Richardson here - about myself... I was raised in a hunting family. I have Bowhunted with traditional gear all my life and started shooting bows when I was 3. I've been able to hunt all over North America and along the way this past 40 plus years hunting with trad gear I have learned that success is born not from tech or the latest camo but from long cold days in the woods and often- failure. Bows and arrows were always a part of my life and I was lucky to have an upbringing that emphasized time in the woods. I was able to see both the rise of Bowhunting in Ontario and the laws and regulations based on ethics & conservation formed- But - also to see them fall apart to an Industry that focused on the latest and newest tech or gadgets to bring wild game home and not the skillsets I was raised to respect and follow. The very fabric of those primitive weapon/Bowhunting seasons was based on the fact that it was harder to take game with a bow and arrow- simply that it was difficult- but there is the truth that many forgot or perhaps never learned. The Ethical Predator was created from those lessons learned all my life. I helped create this community seeing a need to bring folks from all over the world into a community that supported the old ways, from scouting, tracking & the heritage of Bowhunting I grew up with.

Hello, my name is Steve Bostic, 66. I’ve lived and hunted in Missouri most of my life. (2 years in fantastic Idaho) where I learned to fly fish, chase Muleys and elk! With that, a career in reverse: I am now writing for my application to become a Regular Member of Professional Bowhunters Society..a goal of mine to cap off a life of bowhunting, now building self bows for my grandchildren, building my own selfbows, shooting and hunting with glass bows. Recurves. The same is true with the compound for 25 years. Learning about the quarry I chased, whitetail, bunnies and squirrels..was so much fun as a kid. The first fiberglass bow in the backyard. The lone straw-bale target. Paper plate with a black dot. Hopping the neighbor’s fence to retrieve the misses! I want to thank my Dad for being an outdoorsman, my big brothers and my best man Mike (deceased) for all their guidance. Happy shooting all!

I had a great time in Cloverdale camping and shooting with a buddy. We just returned home (St.Louis area) and if I had a camper, I would head right back up to Compton. It was such a good time there at Cloverdale meeting up with folks..some I knew and some I did not. There were a lot of goodies at the vendors tents and some pretty darn good food too!
Happy Father's Day!
I wanted to take a moment to recognize all the amazing Father's inside this community! For those Dad's wanting to share, post any photos of you shooting with your kids!
Happy Father's Day!

@Ed Wagtowicz your apology is understandable and possibly your unique way of being remorseful. That’s totally alright..I get it.

Happiest hunting or working toward hunting with a bow! Teaching the grandkids archery and watching their achievements is the best. Trad since 2002.
