Paul Ryan is an avid trophy hunter. In fact, he told Deer and Deer Hunter Magazine recently that he admires the Super Slam, but would settle for the Grand Slam:
“I read about Chuck Adams, the first guy to get the Super Slam, which is pretty impressive. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to try but one of my goals is to get a grand slam of sheep with a bow. It would be very tough and very expensive. But I’d love to do some of those great western hunts for sheep and deer.”
The best time for Ryan to start his dream is after the November 4 elections. If he gets elected, this trophy hunter's dream can't even get off the ground, and that would be sad.
Actually, trophy hunting is pretty sick, and elevating trophy hunting to killing a series of sheep and calling this a "slam" is ridiculously selfish and self-indulgent. But...we can accommodate him in his ass-hole hobby. A hobby in which he likes to strategize:
“Deer strategy and habitat is just fascinating to me,” he said in our interview. “I have a whole row of books about tactics, strategies and habitat, and I read several magazines. It’s just a big hobby."
