A lot of people just think of hunting as a thing were you go up into a tree and wait for a duck to come flying bye or a deer to walk in the sight so we can shoot them well you see that is hunting but how did we get to here. Why do we hunt the way that we do well it is because of how we got ideas off of the old ways we did it the history of hunting, the old way that we did things not the waiting for it to come to use the I am going to go get what I want and need. Now you see many people think that all hunting was from a tree and that it was from a deer stand and that we used high powered rifles to shoot deer from hundreds of yards. Well I can say that if you think that then you are just wrong that wasn’t the way that we hunted thousands of years ago or even hundreds of years ago similar but not the same.
Back in the ice age there were no trees to go climbing in there were not two by fours to go make a deer stand with heck there was barely any wood to start and fire to get warm so there was none of our hunting. Back then they were nomads they would follow the herds of animals and would kill them and follow they never settled down they never learned about animals being in season like we do they didn’t know that during the winter birds would be gone and that deer would be around and that turkey were hibernating. So they would be following the birds as they left and would be making sure that they followed them enough that they could get food they would follow mammoths and get fur and food off of them. Then they wouldn’t have to move for a while so you see that everything that they wanted they had to go get, but they did have some weapons that we have today like back then they had the spear and other weapons that or tools that they mad...

Now with the silence you were the all-time hunter you were basically invisible you could kill with strong force and kill instantly if shot right and then you had other animals that wouldn’t go off when they heard the shot because they can’t hear it so you have more game.
In conclusion I have been studying hunting and I can say that what many people think is hunting is right but that wasn’t always the way that it was. Everything has a history and hunting has a big one little things happen but toughs little things make ideas that grow into bi ones that make the true history of hunting. That history make everything understandable and make the history of hunting true and pure I love hunting and now I can make it a part of my history like I am a part of it.
