I've searched the forum and read some good material for novice hunters but figured I would start my own thread.

I currently live in Brookly NYC (hence the name) and I wanted to get into hunting, I have a five year old son and I wanted hunting to be something I can teach him or pass down to him, so I do have some time to get up to speed.

Living where I do not many people hunt and frankly I don't know anyone who does, so this would be a solitary activity for myself. Is there anyone in NYC in the same boat? And what are the best resources to get started?

Right now I'm planning on buying a rifle, using my old cammies from my days in the Marines, finding public land in New York once deer season starts and simply heading out there, trial by fire if you will.

Any help or adviceis appreciated, thanks.
