Hunting with the family
Hunting with the family
by Johann Hershensohn
Maiden shoot for daughter and wife on the same weekend.
It was not planned, but in my experience the best things in life aren’t. Since she was about eight years old, my daughter Nika has harassed me to let her hunt. An avid hunter myself, I of course felt she had to be old enough first to understand the ethos of hunting. In my reckoning, one hunts for a very specific reason. In fact, I am a firm believer that your first shoot should be a rite of passage. That said, I am not a fan of senseless hunting for its own sake, as this diminishes the experience. Therefore we need to raise our children responsibly, and inculcate this understanding of hunting in them.

Knippie, het my eers blind gestaar teen die feit dat jou man die verhaal geskryf het. Dit is dan jou foto daar?
Ons het ook families wat deel is van ons SA Jagters tak en ons deel hul lief en leed. Dit is lekker om die kinders te sien groot word en hopelik neem hulle net die goeie dinge saam waar hulle meestal met manne te doen kry. Bly julle voel ook deel van die jagfamilie.
