I had sold myself on the idea that to become a man, one had to be a proficient deer hunter and to end five seasons without filling a tag made me feel like a family failure. Though I eventually began knocking down my share of bucks, still, whenever I would finish out a season with the “you’ll get ‘em next year” speech, I would revert back to that insecure kid who counted fruitless days afield as a loss.
