I'm a complete novice, although I have hiked and done other outdoor activities in the past. I signed up for hunter-ed (starting on Feb 4) and I was wondering what else can I do to get ready for fall, apart from shooting practice.
What do you guys do during the off-season? I would like to get as prepare as possible.
PS: Also, if someone is looking for a hiking partner/sailboat partner I'm in.

Some people hunt coyotes in the "off" season.

Continue your hiking and roaming around. Spend all your outdoor time in the country you plan to hunt. Learning the geography is key to notching a tag. Plan what you are going to do with the animal when you get one. Can you field dress and take care of the meat so you can enjoy the bounty of the hunt?
...and once the rabbits are field dressed, how are you going to get them out of the woods? :chuckle:
Welcome! Maybe you should tell us what you're planning on hunting. :) We can better mislead you that way.
I'd recommend you use the search function at the top of the page to read all posts regarding the species you're interested in chasing. That should take a couple weeks. As mentioned before, if you're chasing deer or elk, scouting during the off season is very important.

I'm really glad to see the camaraderie and how cool you guys/gals are. So I finally got the nerves to stop stalking the forums and saying hi. :)

Shed hunting season is about to start up and turkey season will be here in a few months.
