In 1967 at 19 yo, I went to Nebraska to Fairbury Jr. College in Fairbury NE. I was on a football scholarship and after the season concluded, I started going home to the farms of some of my new friends. I bought my first license at $3.25 plus an upland game stamp, duck stamp and started hunting with them friends o' mine. I guess they were quit surprised that a city kid from southwestern PA could shoot better than the average guys. My years as a Scoutcraft Director at a summer BSA camp, spending spare time shooting archery and firearms (.22 caliber bullets and shot loads) with private instruction from the Field Sports Director and Archery Instructor paid off greatly. Great memories, Thanks for the post opportunity.
