Jack O'Connor, Ernest Hemingway, Robert Ruark and several other larger than life characters like them come to mind from the early/mid part of the last century.
My grandfather who had begun to initiate me into hunting when I was in my early 20's when he passed. My father, who was killed when I was very very young and can barely remember him at all.
I started hunting with my two sons a little late as young teenagers to "set the hook" but think they might have more interest in the outdoor experience now that they are grown, since they both love to camp especially while traveling out of state...And interestingly enough now that we are both getting older my wife of 40 years this coming Decemeber from time to time has indicated a desire to sit a stand with me but will never have the desire to take an animal, although I have created a monster when I taught her to throw a ChugBug topwater at Stripers ...so who knows.

While duck hunting Jesus would come in handy if you didnt have a dog since he can walk on water and all.
Dear Lord please bullwhip me for saying this but I agree, Marcstar is in the lead. Please nobody use this as a quote!!!

God's always with me, but sure would like to be able to hunt with my Dad at least one more day. My Grandfather, never did get to hunt with him, but sure did a whole lot of fishing, crabbing and oystering with him. Just not hunting and fishing like it used to be with me. They are with us though watching while we hunt with and for them now...

I was kinda unclear in my post as to who you would choose, but I am really glad to see dad's and grandad's so much, means to me you were brought up to hunt by your family, with traditonal values. I was really hoping to see who out of history, you would pick........Hemmingway, did not think about him, good choice. I did want to post this so as not discourage anyone from posting, I do wish I had one more day with my Dad and FIL, miss those guys..

I know most would pick family. I think it would be fun to list categories and you must pick in those the top two. Maybe a new thread and better categories.
1. Movie stars 2. Musicians (not Nuge) 3. Celebrity Hunters 4. Atheletes etc.

My favorite and only hunting Pardner is my 8 year old Grandson. When he's not around, PH Capstick or Louis L'Amour usually is.

Like that last choice. Ben Johnson was the most believable western actor I've ever seen. Be interesting to find out what his personality was in the real world.

i've been able to share w/ my dad, we didnt see anything but still was a great time & did share w/ hubby before i started myself & when i was pregnant w/ our youngest, not the best thing to hunt yourself when 8 mths pg but i STILL had to hunt lol (i know, im addicted) and JUST this last deer season, our 2 girls(4 & 6) wanted to start going & our oldest went with me...she had a BLAST just being able to watch the deer even tho i didnt shoot & the only time i did was at a ugly boar & it didnt phase her at all, she was excited i wish i was able to hunt with my uncle, he was an avid archer & bowler & i believe it would have been a memorable experience, i only met him a few times before he died but i could tell he loved hunting, plus living in Jersey, the bear are plentiful, he had a stand half way between his house & the road lol
out of the ppl in history i would LOVE to hunt w/ John Wayne...that would be a blast

It would definitely be my grandpa. He was the one that introduced me to hunting. We never sat the stand together, though. He was a heck of a quail hunter, and burned me every time. He always had the best bird dogs in the county, too. As far as a famous person it would have to be Audie Murphy, a true Texan and an American hero.
