My Grandfather is the person who inspires me the most. He was the outdoorsman of the family. He's been hunting and fishing ever since I can remember. It’s too bad we lost him a few months ago. He taught me how to fish, drive a boat, shoot a gun, how to hunt, filet fish, sharpen a knife, start a fire, drive a 4 wheeler, and skin a deer. He inspired me because he loved to go hunting, fishing or any other outdoor sport. I chose this animal because he is careful and aware of his surroundings when hunting. My Grandfather has always had these characteristics. A buck with a large rack is often the dominant leader of the family. My Grandfather was the dominant leader, he had 5 kids and many Grandchildren and many Great Grandchildren. Lastly, like the buck, my Grandfather was very wise.
