Title: New to Washington
Post by: derek.arnold1 on January 26, 2012, 02:14:07 PM: Hello everyone! I just moved to Washington last month and can't wait to hunt around here. I just moved to Issaquah and was hopeing to meet some people who could give me a few tips and tricks to hunting around here. I haven't hunted the Northwest in years. I'm originally from Oregon and just got out of the Army. The last couple of years I have been living in Georgia knocking down deer and Hogs. I look forward to meeting everyone.

Be sure to take a look at as many threads as you can. You will be glad you did.

This forum's got a lot of ground pounders, so you should feel right at home. Personally, I hunt near Mt. Adams and if you want to hunt that area on the western side, PM me. Archery only for this old man. Thanks for your service.

I know its difficult to start over in a new territory but WA has a lot to offer. Save yourself a lot of time & find a good "podner". Moved up here 8 yrs ago myself.

Good luck! Sideswipe (SFC ret)....by the way, thanks for serv'in.
