Title: Help getting started
Post by: huntinggirl on March 22, 2014, 10:12:20 PM: I just got custody of my 13 yr old nephew. He has always wanted to hunt/fish. So I started him in Hunters Ed (in Granite Falls) I was wanting to know if there are any (free) areas I could take him to shot targets and let him shooting different guns, shotguns, rifle, handgun? We live by Granite Falls however will travel to be able to shoot. They closed all the ones I use to use. :bash: I want to get him ready for Elk/deer season I will let you know how he does test is Wen shooting test Saturday. :tup: Thank you

I always try to leave the area cleaner than when I arrived. I think if everyone did that they wouldn't be shutting down so many spots that we used to take for granted. His first harvest will be a memory of a life time. Good luck.
