This will be an interesting hunting year for me. I moved here from Indiana, where there were an abundance of whitetail, turkey, pheasant, duck, goose, squirrel (bigger than small dogs), and tons of fishing. Whitetail hunting was my main thing.
Hunting here is going to be a huge challenge, and I know i'll have to change up a lot of things...but I have high hopes. I would love to chat one on one with a couple of folks that know this area and could give me some good info to go on.
I'm pretty athletic and am not afraid of hiking in and packing out. I can hang with most anyone when it comes to that sort of thing. I would also love to try rifle hunting for the first time in my life. I have a friend who is willing to let me use his M1A (a rifle i'm very familiar with from my USN days).
I need to find out where to get stuff checked in, and processed, how to get a license here ( hear there is some BS safety course I have to take ).
Last year, I had to skip hunting altogether because of many different things happening at once. Don't think I can make another year without going, I might go crazy.
Anyhow, it's nice to know there are some of us around here that can also share another a common interest and love of the outdoors.
