Today, some methods may have changed, but where and how to hunt (and associated culture from cameraderie to kitchen table) cannot be separated from these hills.

FISHING WITH A BOW
BY JERRY MARTIN
If you are like most diehard bowhunters, summer is the slowest, longest months of the entire year.
You think about antelope and elk seasons or October whitetails and the November rut.
A three-year stretch in jail would pass more swiftly.
There is yard work to be done, lawns to be mowed, a house that needs painting.
A few 3-D tournaments or practice in the backyard occasionally breaks the monotony but mostly there is the waiting.
Why not try bowfishing on a hot summer's day?
There are always carp, gar or some other local rough fish offering sporting archery fare.
You'll also keep your skills sharp during the off season.
The best way to learn more about the sport is to visit a local archery shop and then get out on the water and give it your best shot.
