Who would you hunt with?

[mtnwrunner]

Wow....loaded question. First would be my dad, (rip), I currently hunt with who I wish to, (my brother, elkhunter777, pnwgator, formadilious, and others on RS).
IF I could snap my fingers and hunt with anyone all time from history.......Lewis and Clark.

Teddy Roosevelt, and Lewis & Clark.

I would have to say good Ol Joe Biden, bring along Dick Cheney and send them off together. Make sure Dick had plenty of buck shot.

I’d maybe hunt with John Stewart, Daniel Boone’s brother in law and one of his favorite hunting pals. He was my 8th great-grandfather.

sarah bowmar......for sure. Will for sure bag a nice buck too.... I just need to get over the baiting, poaching out of season thing.

Seriously though.

To those that said Teddy Roosevelt, I ask, why? He is a conservation icon and I am by no means looking to cancel him, but have you read accounts of his hunts?

Dude would roll into a basin with his gaggle of packers and cooks and skinners and trackers and stack bodies like they were poker chips. I suspect he had an ego that would stack more Insta likes than Tits Mcgee Huntress were he alive in the validation age. But he is certainly famous.

It was just a different time that we can't relate to, and I'm not sure my modern sensibilities would want to. I appreciate what he means to public lands, but he doesn't make my first cut.

My pick of Teddy was because of his enthusiastic energy, curiosity, and love of nature, combined with his intellect and talkative nature. He wouldn't dazzle you with his hunting expertise probably, but you'd never be bored and it would be the most interesting and enlightening trip ever.

The people picking our esteemed trappers and explorers would no doubt be treated to some excellent wilderness craft, but I'm afraid the campfire would be mighty boring as folks like Kit Carson and Jim Bridger were notoriously quiet, solitary guys.

Suprised you didnt say Captain Ahab.

 

[EastHumboldt]

Nobody wants to hunt with Hemingway? My first choice would be my departed brother Jim.

 

[Billy Goat]

Suprised you didnt say Captain Ahab.

Naw man, whaling is illegal anymore, cept that kind you do at last call.


I been out of that scene for a while now.

 

[Scoot]

Not famous, but one more hunt with my dad would be my pick. Miss him every day.

 

[Glendon Mullins]

I would like to hunt with the #LEGEND @robby denning he's more famous than all those previously listed and if he put his mind to to it could probably grow just as good a mustache as Teddy Roosevelt

 

[rayporter]

Billy Dixon!

Lewis Wetzel

 

[kentuckybowman]

i just finished reading “Undaunted Courage”. If I had a time machine, I’d do the exact same thing. There’d be nothing like it.

I have read that book twice. the reason i responded the way i did is if someone said you could go back and go on that 4 year mission and see the country as it was but you would not live past the end of the mission, i would do it in a heartbeat.
