Big Game Hunting: A Family Affair
By: LOWA ambassador Lisa Ballard
When I was a kid, hunting was a guy-thing. The dad’s disappeared into the woods for a week each fall, while the mom’s bantered about whether the game they really sought was wild or poker. When I learned to hunt, in the late 1980’s, there were few women afield, but I went because it was something to enjoy outdoors, at first with friends and later with my family, especially as my son, Parker, got older.
