RE: ok, lets get to know each other
I grew up in the very same Maryland area described by Rickmur in his post.The militaryhas scattered me and my deer hunting to West Virginia, Alabama, Croatia, Colorado, California, Tenn, Georgia, N. Carolina and even Puerto Rico (where the speargunning and rummight make you forget about bowhunting). Currently, the military is using your tax dollars to pay for my grad school education after 15 years as military helicopter pilot.
I have been deer hunting for 27 years, but I took about 18 years off bowhunting from 1987-2005. I like killing them with a bow, but I won't hesitate to use other, more modern implements if the opportunity arises.
At 38 years old, I am married with one daughter (13).
