Hello y'all. I just started hunting last season in New Jersey. That was my senior year in high school, so now I'm at college in Rochester. I'm wondering if there's anyone up here that would take a newbie hunting. Last season I did a bit of whitetail, small game, and pheasant hunting. I never got a deer, but I helped my friend clean, skin, and butcher a deer when he got one. I've only got my shotgun license in New Jersey, but I hope to take the bow and muzzleloader courses there definitely in time for the 07-08 season. I also have some experience working with retrievers and working with waterfowl as I worked as a bird boy with various retriever clubs for a few years and have picked up some stuff from that. I've had a few years of experience with 12-gauge shotguns from the retriever clubs and last season, and I have several years of experience with .22s. When it comes to something I'm interested in such as hunting, I can learn fast. I don't have my truck at college yet, but I intend to bring it after Thanksgiving break, and until then I can use my friend's little car or my mountain bike to get around to some degree.
