2020 YEARBOOK THE OFFICI A L PUBLICATION OF THE BOONE A ND CROCK ETT CLUB

Special Edition n May 2021

Back in the day, to learn a new skill or trade you would apprentice to a master craftsman for a period of onthe-job training, typically at low wages. Now, apprentice is often used in a broader context to simply mean a beginner or novice. You could argue that most of us were apprentice hunters at one time, learning hunting skills and responsibilities “on the job” from one season to the next from a parent, relative, or family friend. Many of us went from our Red Ryders to .22s to centerfire rifles under the instruction and watchful eye of our mentors. We came to understand that safety always comes first and to never take a shot until we had fully and clearly identified our target and knew we had a safe background. We also learned about the nature and habits of the game we hunted, and which hunting strategies might work best. Often through stories and

example, we gained an awareness of what it meant to be an ethical hunter, to be your own referee and that fair chase always came first. This past year saw a large influx of young adults into our hunting ranks, men and women who did not typically grow up in hunting families. Sure, there are lots of things we can learn online these days, but the tenets of good sportsmanship and the meaning of fair chase are still best handled with a one-on-one conversation. In the months ahead, I hope you’ll make it a point to reach out to one of these new hunters. You might find him or her at the shooting range, a conservation dinner event, at work or at a neighborhood barbeque. In a fast-changing world, helping as many of these apprentices as we can become the craftsmen of the future is another kind of record we all want to achieve. Doug Painter Editor-In-Chief
