    Getting ready for quail

    I would so take you up on this if I didn't already have 2 things in line I need to do Saturday (kid's baseball practice & going scouting for my deer hunt). I was just thinking "wonder if anyone would be willing to let a newbie quail hunter hunt with them...guess this answered that question Good luck and be safe out there. Would really like to try hunting\eating quail one of these days.
  8. If I can win one before my 200th donation, it'll be all worth it...crossing fingers...toes...eyes...and everything else I can cross...

    Goals

    I'd say my low goal is just to be out there but that's too low. At the very worst, I'll be camping and hiking with my gear. So let's bump it up a notch. My low goal is to get a chance to shoot at any coues with an antler...hit or miss. My high goal is to hit the shot and recover the buck.

    WTB Clip

    LOL reminds me of me and my friend's conversation while we were dove hunting. He kept saying clip..I kept saying mag...and he looked confused each time I said it. I noticed and I kept doing it just for fun. Good times.
  15. I was 37 when I went on my first big game hunt that was last year. Family doesn't hunt and I never even thought about hunting as a kid. My sons have gone squirrel and rabbit hunting. Brought them dove hunting but they just retrieved. I just put in for javelina with my 11 year old son for this spring so hopefully that'll be his first big game hunt.
  16. Probably had to twist both arms before you said yes...huh??? Good luck and have fun...
