Learn them, know them and be sure to scold anyone who has the gall to offer up any of these awesomely bad instructions.

Every hunter follows in the footsteps of those before him. We carry on the knowledge of the men and women who have imparted wisdom and unwritten rules, sage advice that we'll never forget.
