My two favorite things in the world are hunting and music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not a lot of people know this, but in addition to being a pretty decent hunter – I’m also an expert piano player!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hunting songs have been a part of human culture for centuries, combining two of the oldest human hobbies into a beautiful harmony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Harmony. Get it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have evidence of hunting songs dating back to ancient civilizations, which is honestly no surprise. These songs were originally used to pass down stories and traditions from one generation to the next, but also a way for hunters to sing and coordinate during the hunts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today, they’re more of just good songs to listen to to get hyped up for the next expeditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I love all things hunting, so let me show you my 12 favorite hunting songs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This song from Shelton’s album “Based on a True Story” is a beautiful and sentimental reflection on how hunting is a part of a lot families family heritage. It tells the story of a grandfather passing on his hunting shotgun to his grandchild, symbolizing the transfer of hunting traditions from one generation to the next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s truly a great story of the bond that’s formed through our time out in the brushes and is a personal favorite of mine because it reminds me of how I was introduced to hunting. There’s something speecial about landing a kill, knowing that the men in my family have been doing the same thing over and over for hundreds of years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m also a big sucker for family heirlooms like the grandfather’s gun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
