Another member of Team Sublett has taken a rite of passage, reaching a milestone in the life of a Pennsylvania young’n. Sadie took part 1 of the PA Hunter-Trapper Education course tonight.
She’s been hunting with me for a couple of years now, and she seems to like it pretty well. She and I had a successful doe hunt last winter (thanks, Mark Banker!) While she couldn’t pull the trigger on Bambi, she tells me that she thinks that she’d like to do some small game hunting. And I think she’s going to like shooting a bow, once we get around to setting one up for her.
Tonight’s class wasn’t all that inspirational. She learned a few things about gun safety, and she took lots of notes for the test. She’ll have to pass an exam before they’ll let her get a license now that she’s of age. I’m not usually one to compare test performances between our children, but Levi notched a perfect score when he took the test way back in 2007. Of course, the test was probably way easier back then…
