Men's Elk Advance part (3) Character Development

I love this picture!!!

In the series of articles I am writing on "Making Memories with Our Son's" this picture surely fits!

Daniel Ruglowski had such a look of surprise as he accidently found himself at the bottom of a mountainside, slidding down in a funny way! These boys were amazing as they tredged through some of the most difficult terrain, floating their clothing while swimming across a large ice cold river, finding their bearings in the darkest of nights, avoiding treacherous cliffs and dangerous beasts around them . They were real troopers too as they followed my husbands "No Scent" rule for their food to keep the game unaware of their presence. Daniel, I think falling down the side of the mountain may have spilled the beans though! Sort of a bugle call all in itself! This picture is worth a thousand words. Any takers? Let's see who can come up with the best caption?

Much character development is learned when young men suffer difficulties while bowhunting. They develop proven qualities such a patience, endurance and longsuffering. These characteristics and more can be transferred in other aspects including spiritual matters, life difficulties, business or leadership skills. It has been said that some of the greatest strategist in history were young men practicing alone in the fields just like this one, pushing their endurance, stretching their abilities and developing the character needed to become the great leaders and world changers of all time.
