im the opposite,my father was totally opposed to hunting,never wanted me to be involved.He was an animal lover of sorts,only when it suited him.Well at 14 had my first dig to a terrier with a hunting man of old.and no going back to my fathers dismay.I ended up with a few ferrets,a terrier and a lurcher.It drove the poor man mental ,lol.Found out years later my grandfather whom I never knew as he died when I was very young was an avid hunter.Must be in the blood.
