Noteworthy quotes:

"The sportsman lives his life vicariously. For he secretly yearns to have lived before, in a simpler time. A time when his love for the land, water, fish and wildlife would be more than just part of his life. It would be his state of mind." -Jim Slinsky

"To achieve true happiness in life, a man must get lucky twice. First, he must own a great bird dog, to preoccupy his mind and satisfy his days. Second, he must find a great woman, to preoccupy his heart and fulfill his nights." -Jim Slinsky

"We all answer the calls of life: family, God, friends, and career. Some of us hear an additional voice, the call of conservation." -Jim Slinsky

"Compassion is a reflection of our heart. Conviction is a reflection of our soul. A clean environment is the reflection of our intellect." -Jim Slinsky

"When you come to accept conservation as far more important than recreation and consumption, you will have achieved the dubious title of sportsman." -Jim Slinsky

"Some will be remembered for what they said. Others will be remembered for what they did. The special will be remembered for who they were." -Jim Slinsky

"As the light grows dimmer and the trail begins to fade, my sweetest dreams are those of yesteryear, at deer camp." -Jim Slinsky

"Throughout history sportsman have overlooked the cost of a challenge. Instead, they have embraced the necessity of accomplishing it." -Jim Slinsky

"Society will forever judge hunters by their compassion for the animals they hunt." -Jim Slinsky

"The farmer who opens his land to hunting and fishing should be our friend for life. The farmer who closes his land and pollutes our waters is a threat to our very way of life." -Jim Slinsky

The fisherman's prayer

God grant that I may live to fish
Until my dying day
And when it comes to my last cast
I then most humbly pray
When in the Lord's safe landing net
I'm peacefully asleep
That in his mercy I be judged
As good enough to keep.


You win some, lose some, and wreck some. -Dale Earnhardt

You move on....You hurt like hell then you move on
Dale Earnhardt quote after the death of his friend Neil Bonnett

You can't let one bad moment spoil a bunch of good ones. -Dale Earnhardt

You don't love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her. -anon

Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.' Mature love says 'I need you because I love you. -Erich Fromm

Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once. -William Shakespeare
