My Foreign Subculture

I will be focusing on the "hunter" subculture. This culture is truly a foreign piece of material to me as I've never so much as held a gun or been out in the wilderness WITH a gun. I will be interviewing a Junior who lives in my dorm as well as doing some research into any organizations that exist around campus. I'm not trying to become a hunter, but I feel I have a lot of stereotypes that I would like to have torn down. The best case scenario would be to meet a kid without a southern accent, who likes sports, video games, and still likes to hunt. Another rarity that I would hope to find is someone who likes to hunt but doesn't like Nascar. I imagine this will be almost impossible, but once more I feel my stereotypes are leaking through.

The group labeled as "Hunters" would be a subculture because although they share some identities with what some would call "rednecks" or "hicks" (for lack of a better term) they can include everything from ten year olds to seventy year old women who all just share a love for the outdoors and the exhilaration of a well placed shot.

I really look forward to breaking down some walls and learning about this subculture.
