Long time lurker, first time poster. From what I can gather, you are supposed to tell a joke on your first post, so here it goes.
It was Saturday morning and John, an avid hunter, woke up ready to go bag the first deer of the season. He walks down to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee, and to his surprise he finds his wife, Mary, sitting there, fully dressed in camouflage. John asks her, "What are you up to?" Mary smiles, "I'm going hunting with you!" John, though he has many reservations, reluctantly decides to take her along. They arrive at the hunting site. John sets his wife safely up in the tree stand and tells her: "If you see a deer, take careful aim on it and I'll come running back as soon as I hear the shot." John walks away with a smile on his face knowing that Mary couldn't bag an elephant -- much less a deer. But not 10 minutes pass when he is startled as he hears an array of gunshots. Quickly, John starts running back. As John gets closer to her stand, he hears Mary screaming, "Get away from my deer!" Confused, John races faster towards his screaming wife. And again he hears her yell, "Get away from my deer!" followed by another volley of gunfire. Now within sight of where he had left his wife, John is surprised to see a cowboy, with his hands high in the air. The cowboy, obviously distraught, says, "Okay, lady, okay! You can have your deer! Just let me get my saddle off it!"'
Anyways, been hunting for a couple of years. Have a good number of buddies that have been hunting for 20-30 years. I've learned lots from them. Love being outside in the woods with my wife and kids. The kids are learning lots about hunting and love every minute of it. In fact, my 10 year old daughter is pushing me to get her CORE done. Getting ready to go on my spring grizzly hunt in a few weeks. After scoping out the area last fall, i'm pretty sure I have a good grasp of where to head. I love my Tikka's, and am slowly starting a collection of them. Always looking for a good excuse to by another T3 Lite. I've been lurking around here for a year or so, so i'm looking forward to learning more from the site, and contributing where I can.
