    Introducing myself

    I thought I would introduce myself. I am 35 and a new hunter (this fall will be my first time). My father in law is going to be taking me out to Mount Baldy Oct 1 and I am very excited.

    I am very urban, a tree hugging hippy, and used to be quit the anti.

    So I have been going to the range every weekend to work on my shot, going from unable to hit the broadside of a barn to hopefully being somewhat competent.

    welcome welcome welcome Brian - you will absolutely love this site and the people - I felt a complete warmness from everyone here - also best of luck on your first ever hunt - it will be a completely awesome experience - and noting wrong with hugging a few trees - they need love too

    Welcome Brian

    The more you learn about hunting, the more you learn that hunters are the first and truest conservationists, much more so than any tree hugger...Although, hunters liek trees, too!!
    Knowledgeable shooters agree- The 375 Ruger is the NEW KING of all 375 caliber cartridges. ALL HAIL THE NEW KING!
