need some help, newbie here
« on: October 14, 2008, 12:29:03 PM »
ok so after reading into it i see that duck hunting is rather hard for someone that is a greenhorn to go out and just pop off some rounds hoping to get a few.

so im trying to find some good area's to go grouse or pheasant hunting. i live just south of seattle, basically sea-tac airport, and was wondering if there are any decent places within about 1.5hour drive that i can do to to try to find some.

i was planning on using my H&R single shot 20gauge with a full choke and 7.5ounce shot.

like i said ive NEVER been hunting for anything before and would like to just get out in the woods and see what i can get. so any information on this would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks,
Shean

do you have a license?  have you taken a hunters safety course?
1.5 hrs will get you to some pheasant release sites as well as take you to some areas you could walk for grouse.
