New hunter in JBLM looking for mentor/ hunting partner
« on: May 24, 2016, 08:24:59 AM »
Never hunted but I want to learn, my sons are getting older and I want to teach them to preserve this great American tradition. Looking for someone to help me learn so I don't have to go at it alone. Particularly interested in waterfowl but open to anything. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the site.  :hello:

I'm with a group that trains our bird dogs on JBLM every Wed.  It's mostly upland work, but we do some waterfowl work also.  You and the kiddos are welcome to come out an learn with us.  We will be on TA 15 tomorrow starting at 9 AM.

I also do mentoring of youth for upland hunting.  If Wed. does not fit your schedule, maybe we can put something together on a weekend.  I do not charge for the birds or my time.

Solid offer right there.  :tup:

This is the kind of stuff that makes me love this site.

Good luck guys.

The JBLM Northwest Adventure Center is a great resource for outdoor activities, and, they normally have some pretty good hunting and fishing clinics throughout the year.  They also schedule and facilitate some really good outdoor ventures.  Give em a holler and see what they have coming up.

Old dog, I'm out of state until this weekend but I am definitely interested. I'll be there Wednesday after this one. What do I need to bring?

Phantom 16, didn't even think about the Adventure center I'll give them a call.

We move our training around, so we probably won't be at area 15 next week.  You're still invited, we just have to figure out where to invite you to.  :chuckle: 

All you need right now is eye and ear protection.  You will just be observing.

I do alot of waterfowl hunting during the late season and always willing to bring new folks out. We have had some large groups on our diver hunts, mostly JBLM guys, and have a great time. Just need to show up and jump in a boat.
