  • Forgive my ignorance, but why is this hooky? Doesn't every sportsman work to make money in the off-season? Yoninah (talk) 13:07, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: I don't imagine a lot of multi-millionaire sporting types are working in the off season beyond the ocassional photocall for their sponsors :). But of those athletes who do I think working in one of the world's largest game reserves is a little bit more exciting than your average 9-5. I went with a shorter version but you could instead go with
  • Now that I've read the article, I don't understand the hook at all. The fact that she was injured while she was working there is the real story, but of course we can't make a hook out of that. Perhaps you could find more color to add to the article and thereby get another hook idea. Yoninah (talk) 13:39, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: Too be honest I quite liked the hook, it's more interesting than many, essentially top-level athlete previously had interesting job. Other options include the below, of which ALT 4 is probably my next favourite
  • Yes, I like ALT4 too. ALT4 hook ref verified and cited inline. Rest of review per LavaBaron. Thank you for your patience. I'll leave ALT0 open in case the prep promoter disagrees with me as to the better hook. Yoninah (talk) 17:31, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
