Hot Local Singles Meetup *EDIT*

[Maybach Outdoors]

Hello all,

I've been creeping around the forum for some time now and it seems that there are quite a few folks looking for people to go hunting with. It seems that there are tons of posts where people come out of the woodwork and voice their desire to meet up with other aspiring hunters (ie. go on a scouting trip). However, it seems that nothing really materializes from these posts.

I would like to organize a a little high buck hunt scouting trip if anyone is interested. Please shoot me a PM if you would like to go...
Truthfully, I'm a little apprehensive to spend a day or a weekend in the woods with a bunch of strangers so here are a few guidelines.

1. Ages 20-35 male or female (sorry to discriminate against ye old folk)
2. Must be able to drive to the trailhead
3. Must have some backcountry experience (ie. walk a couple miles with a pack)
4. Having a set of binoculars or a spotting scope is encouraged
5. Down to earth person
6. Get after it type of mentality
7. Must be free either July 17th or July 24th weekend (don't know if it will be a day or overnight trip)

I live in seattle so if you wanna meet up for a beer or something to "feel" each other out let me know

Not sure about how many people will reach out but I'd like to limit the group size to 5 or so...

A bit about me: I'm a 25 year old grad student (chemistry) at the University of Washington. I've been "hunting" for only two years... Not super experienced but learning every day. I did get into a ton of does last year just no bucks (I think I was too low in elevation). I've spent a ton of time in the backcountry so when it comes to gear and such I'm pretty dialed in... just trying to piece everything together for the hunting aspect of it. Politically I'm in the middle (*gasp*) so if you are super far right or left I'm not sure if we'd get along (although this isn't really a deal breaker... I will respect your opinions either way).

If anyone has done something like this before please reach out to me for ideas and suggestions.

Cheers,
M

Might learn something from the 30+ age group. Good luck with your online dating. . In this day and age there aren’t to many 20-30 year olds that are going to work that hard.

My thinking here was that people would vibe a little bit better if the age range tighter

I was more skeptical of the UW and liking to hike and hunt.  Something isn't adding up.

not at all man just having fun. It's hard to break the ice but this is a great place to meet like minded people. Some of my closest friends and hunting partners I have met from right here on this forum. I'm an old guy at 37 though
