Why do we hunt?  Why are we hunters? What makes us tick? For many reasons, these are questions that we should probably ask ourselves as hunters.  These are also the questions that Robbie Kroger has set out to answer as part of his Blood Origins project.  Through interviews with hunters and his own experiences, Robbie has discovered that we all have a connection in our roots to hunting, passed along from generation to generation, and that often times the connection to hunting is deeper than that.  This is what we might consider our hunting heritage. And if you are familiar with this concept, you know what it is. It has a smell, a feel, you breathe it in and it feels amazing.  It is the freedom that hunting provides. And it is freedom that allows hunting to exist.  This may seem a bit cerebral at the moment, but I suspect that you'll understand it better as we discuss Blood Origins with Robbie.
