Newcomers to ancient practice
By Lanier Clegg, public affairs specialistDecember 14, 2020
Hunting has been a part of human life for thousands of years and was a necessity for early human survival. There were no grocery stores where meat could be purchased. Humans were completely self-sufficient. This tradition of self-sufficiency was part of the driving force that inspired Adam Johnson to begin exploring the sport of hunting.
Johnson, 39, went hunting a few times on his own, but said those outings were little more than stumbling around, figuratively as well as literally, in the woods. He asked questions on online forums to learn more about the “dos and donts” of hunting, but that only helped so much.
