Hello all! New member here and recent graduate of the CORE program (which I thoroughly enjoyed!) Been lurking for a while now and looking forward to participating and continuing down this slippery slope!
Welcome JuicyJay,
About the only slippery slope here is the one you make. And that will now be how you outfit yourself to go hunting. It has changed from the time I stared in the latter part of the last millennium. Where once you could truck out in your regular every day attire, you will now have to outfit yourself with some camo gear. And then the firearms you will need. A 22, 223 6.5 300wm, 12 ga, 20 ga spotting scope, rifles scopes, reloading tools and supplies and so on.
By taking the core, you have gained some basic knowledge, now you have to expand upon it. There are two ways. One, go afield and learn on your own. Or two, find a mentor and get the expedited version.
Again, welcome to the sight.

I never look at this thread ! My mistake as the more new hunters we have coming up is a big plus ! There are many knowledgeable members here !
You will find a plethora of information here and if you can’t find what your looking for Just Ask ! But not as many questions as myself LOL !
Welcome !

Being new to the site, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who shares their knowledge and experience on here. There is clearly a lot to be learned by reading through the various threads. Hopefully I can return the favour one day once I learn enough. I used to hunt/ shoot with my dad when I was a kid, but I am now getting back into the sport. I never lost interest, but fell into the trap of 'maybe next year'. Anyway, I'm determined to make make it happen this year. Some grouse hunting at least, and maybe a deer hunt if I can shoot well enough. I've got lots to learn, but looking forward to getting out in the bush! Cheers
