    Those Who make Us Proud To Be Called Hunters

    Turkey season is a great time to get out and get moving in the spring woods, but some are not able to ramble due to disabilities. Do they think turkey hunting is not a realistic pursuit for them? Not a chance. Conservation partners teamed up with disabled hunters for two turkey hunts recently, and not only did these hunters tag gobblers, but they also displayed sportsmanship and camaraderie in their finest forms.

    OPINION

    A Vanishing Hunting Heritage?

    Now and then, an official in a state office will take a position that casts in stone the proper path for others to follow. In the case of South Carolina’s Department of Natural Resources, its director, John Frampton, has recently authored a powerful essay in South Carolina Wildlife (May-June 2008), and we wanted to make sure that all of our readers had a chance to see this. It is easy for the executives within South Carolina’s government to play the middle and offer moderation and compromise to such an extent that they stand for almost nothing. John Frampton took another turn, and he should be congratulated for his courage.
