I don't think until that point I ever thought about how my actions reflected on hunters as a whole, only about me. It made me stop and think how I could do more to put a positive outlook on hunting. Around my home town hunting is a way of life so I never really thought about it. I loved it!

Like you said, each one of us is responsible for how the public perceives hunting, and you laid out a perfect plan on how we can change it. I know that in the past I have failed to help our sport by not acknowledging that I hunt to certain clients. After all, now all brides want to hear about hunting, much less the killing. However the more open I have become about it, the more I have found that MANY people either hunt, have a family member that hunts, or just doesn't care that people hunt. So while I always have to worry bout running off a customer, that has made me more willing to tackle the issue! I now take every opportunity to promote hunting and educate those I come in to contact with about it. That is a great article.
