Salina South’s Lawson Rassette has had a passion for the outdoors for as long as he can remember and it was family affair.
“My passion started when I was young I would go hunting and or fishing with my dad and brother,” Rassette said. “It started by just getting asked to go and I always liked to spend time with them and hunting was always something they had a lot of passion for.”
Some people enjoy the outdoors for the sport or for the peacefulness to it, but the aesthetics is what draws Rassette in.
“When I’m enjoying the outdoors, I always look at the beautiful scenery around me and take in how beautiful the outdoors is,” Rassette said.
While Rassette enjoys fishing, it’s the hunting that he truly has a passion for.
“Some activities I enjoy doing outdoors is mainly hunting but I also like to fish as well,” Rassette said. “More specifically I enjoy deer, turkey, and dove hunting the most.”
Finding the time to hunt is a challenge for Rassette, but the fall is the time of the year where he doesn’t have a sport to play.
“During dove season I’m able to go more often due to not having any sports in the fall,” Rassette said. “But once deer season hits I get a lot busier due to basketball and I don’t have as much time to hunt.”
