I started following my dad around in the grouse woods and after deer when I was 6 or so. I was shooting ground squirrels around our property starting around 8 years old with a Remington 514 single shot 22. I wasn't old enough to buy a license at the time, but I didn't move off our property and there were plenty of ground squirrels to keep me busy.

The would have been about 1963, so it's been around 54 seasons.
