Motivating Hunting Partner to get in Shape

My Dad and I are pretty solid hunting partners and I enjoy every second I get to spend in the woods with him. I count on him not keeping up fully all the time, but he puts good effort in. Motivating him to just get his legs and endurance going is the key. The last elk hunt we went on, he worked his rear end off to get ready for. We live close to each other, so we were able to train together, but with separate programs allowing for age. Gym in the winter and did a ton of hiking through the spring and summer and he capped it off with a long loaded hike to the point he knew he was ready. He was rewarded for his effort.

Some great comments here. Matt, that's an awesome picture. I'm sure you will never forget that hunt.
