the hunter as well as the species we love to hunt. SCI is “ first for hunters “. We
ALL must have the highest respect for the land and the animals we hunt, and
help properly manage them so future generations will be able to do all the things
in the outdoors that make us who we are. We are hunters, and proud of it. Please
