I do believe that Hello would be the first order of business for a greenhorn of the forum like myself. I'm currently in the Port Orchard area here in Washington. I was born and raised in Washington and spent most of my time fishing and camping. A few years back I went with my Dad and two of my brothers over to Eastern Washington and I was able to bag my first Turkey on some property owned by old Duke (Some of you might know old Duke, we met him while scouting for Turkey). Anyhow, jump forward a few years plus a marriage and we haven't been out hunting since. I'm bound and determined to get back into hunting, so I proclaimed to my Father that this would be the year we would do a spring hunt and a fall hunt. My Wife and I are expecting our first child, a boy, at the end of April! She has given me permission to go on a day hunt, or short weekend hunt at the opening of the season. This means that if I want to take part in the spring hunt I'm going to be chasing the ever elusive Eastern Ghosts. I will be scouting down south and hoping to run into some evidence without getting eaten by a cougar.
Well I figured I would introduce myself, lay out my life story, and in the end shamefully promote my own hunting agenda. Wish me luck, I understand that I am definitely going to need it.
