Hi everyone, just wanted to say hi and actually post my first post! I've actually been a member here for a few years, since I got my PAL. I've had a passive interest in hunting for the last few years but have gotten way more enthusiastic the last year or so. I think this comes from listening to guys like Steven Rinella and hearing their passion and reasons for hunting. I finally signed up for the CORE program with Kent in Cloverdale and actually take my test tonight. Very excited to get my hunting licence!
My Uncle is a hardcore Newfie so I'm gonna steal one of his favourite jokes. He has tonnes of these quick little jokes that make you laugh/roll your eyes and loves to rattle them off in quick succession.
At a Newfie hockey game, they're giving away a prize in between periods. The guy has to shoot the puck from one end of the ice to the other and score, win a prize. So he gets it in and the crowd goes nuts. But the announcer guy says hold on, we just need you to answer a skill testing question to make it official. So he asks, whats 4+2. The guy thinks hard for a sec and then says 6. The whole crowd yells out give him another chance.
Anyways I'm going to make an effort now to stop lurking and posting more. Hopefully with a hunt or 2 under my belt that'll be much easier.
Currently I own a 22LR, 12 guage shotgun, and a 17hmr. Don't have a big game rifle yet but am looking at getting a 7mm Rem Mag. Thoughts? There's so many opinions all over its hard to know who to listen to.
Anyways hello to all and good luck!
Mike
