They were up way before daylight, drove to their hunting spot and got the decoys out just as the sun peeked up over the hill. After a day of cold rain, a zillion questions from the boy and no ducks, they drove home. When the dad came through the door I asked him how their hunt was. "O.K.", he said. "Cold, wet, no ducks. The boy never even got to shoot. Kind of disappointing I guess". Then his son came through the door and I also asked him how the hunt was. "It was great!", he said. "Dad and I spent the whole day together. We didn't get to shoot but we talked a lot." Then he walked off beaming with pride and satisfaction. I guess it's all a matter of how you look at it isn't it?

I had cut limbs and bushes and out of the way and yet there was one area where I had to navigate around several tree-laps and weeds. I could have gone another way but this seemed to be the best direction if I was to leave the smallest footprint. The problem was not maneuvering the fallen trees; it was dodging those little cockleburs that at- tached themselves to my clothes. Every morning, while watching deer, I found myself picking off burr after burr without ever getting them all. One evening, after a hunt, I had the great idea of just putting the infested clothing in the wash and let- ting an agitator get rid of my agitation. It didn't work. Those little things hung on like a kid at a water park. They say these were the inspiration behind Velcro. I can't help but believe this to be true.

They pro- duce a seed (the cocklebur). And when some animal comes by; the seed attach- es itself to the fur and is carried away to another area. The burr is then picked off and left to germinate – if it has attached itself to the right source that is.

Gary Miller Aiming Outdoorsmen Aiming Outdoorsmen Toward Christ oward Christ wise, as I later found out, the seed just re- mains on the source and ultimately dries up, dies, and then is easily brushed off. The moral of the story??? Be careful, what or who, you attach yourself to. As I look toward a new year, I want to be reminded of this lesson. I want to be attached to the things that will help me be the most fruitful. Not that it is all about me, but it's about being all that God made me to be. It's about reaching my full po- tential. It's about getting the most out of my gifts and talents. And in order to do that, I must continually attach myself to the things God has placed there just for me. Sometimes that means I must say no to really good things in order for me to focus on what I have been called to do. But there is one thing that I always need to remember – the goal or the accom- plishment is not the end; it is the means to an end. The end is always the people that God puts in my life. My gifts, talents and resources are not meant for my en- joyment, but for my employment. I am to employ them in the lives of people. For without people, I would be like a cockle- bur seed that's only along for the ride. www outdoortruths.or www..outdoortruths.org Sportsman's Corner Tommy Fox killed this nice 8-point buck on Nov. 21st.
