I once did an entire hour-long radio show about advice … from professionals, listeners, newcomers and seasoned sportsmen and women. Boy howdy, did I learn stuff! And their advice about advice is time-tested and evergreen.
No matter what your area of expertise, passion, level of skill (or lack thereof) you will become a better, safer, more helpful and possibly even more insightful sportsman if you …
- Go today. Don’t wait for the perfect day, weekend or for better weather.
- Go beyond the “sporting” act to the culture, lore, and history by reading books, joining a group, or finding a local expert.
- By learning to use a map and compass; you open up brand-new territory.
- Hone your skills like they do in medical school: watch, do, teach.
- Make your next big-ticket investment foul-weather gear. Everything is more fun when you’re warm and dry.
- Learn via the microwave method: investing in a lesson or pro guide is money (and time) well spent.
See you somewhere outdoors!
