Hi folks,
I've been leering around this site off and on for the last year and finally decided it might be a good idea to introduce myself and get formally involved with Hunting Washington.
I have been a bird hunter since I was old enough to shoulder my first shotgun, an H&R Topper youth in 20ga. Mostly pheasants and quail on the east side and grouse on the west side. I even picked off some quail when I was a little kid with my BB gun and asked my dad to cook them for me!
Last year, I got my first duck, a ringneck and my second duck, a Green Wing Teal. My dad hated ducks so I had never hunted them until I met another hunter that enjoyed hunting ducks and he took me out there in the crap to bag some webbed feet critters. This year, I got my first Mallard drake - despite almost freezing my nuts off in the Moses Lake area last weekend.
I'd like to get into deer hunting, a buddy of mine is an avid deer hunter and is willing to show me the ropes, when I'm ready and willing… guess I need to start looking for a rifle…
I'm also into other outdoor activities like most of you likely are - fishing, camping, hiking, etc!
Anyway, I thought a brief introduction seemed like the right thing to do and this particular section seemed to be the most reasonable spot to post it.
David.
