Title: New to hunting and to forum
Post by: Slingeroflead on November 06, 2012, 07:56:23 PM: Hello all,
At 44, I went deer hunting for the first time this year. I didn't get a deer but my hunting buddy did. I must say I'm now addicted. I can't wait for late buck to try and fill my tag.

Last week-end I went out scouting and took my shotgun with and got a couple shots off at a grouse but missed. Guess its time to practice on some clays.

I grew up around guns and hiking, hunting is the best of both worlds.

I have been reading this forum and enjoying it so I figured I should introduce myself.

Yeah, my wife asked when I would be done spending money on hunting gear etc. I just smiled and said "never".

Post by: Glockster on November 07, 2012, 09:51:12 AM: WELCOME!

Think about joining a local chapter of a hunting/conservation club like WA Waterfowl Association, Wenatchee Sportsman Club, Inland Wildlife Council, etc....lots of great people who will help show you the ropes if you put in some volunteer time.
