Here is a link to a thread I started last year.  I'm still very new to this, but I did get allot of great advise.

Read threw it, and feel free to shoot me a PM if you have any questions. Again, I'm no expert ( far from it) but I'm willing to share what I've learned, and experiences I've had in the last year with ya.

I probably did about 20 stands before I actually called one in... And about 80 before I actually shot one. Keep up the work, it will pay off eventually. Hopefully quicker than it did for me!

I have probably at least tripled 4Yoter's stand count, and still haven't connected with one yet.  You are up against one of nature's wiliest of creatures, so don't be discouraged.  The learning process never stops with these critters!
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

When Bernie Madoff did it, it's called a "Ponzi Scheme"
When Government does it, it's called "Social Security"
