WAlmart has great guns and decent name brands..

If I had one gun it would be an 870 Remington..you can hunt anything with it my 870 is unbeleivaable..it actually shocks me..Cost about 350.00


BOw..If you have Big Buck expos up there ..you need to go ...The folks in there compete with each opther..I got a new Hoyt for 300.00 off book price..LOVE THAT BOW!! Acherey my friend can be very expensive...decent arrows with decent broadheads..mine are 16.00 a piece..

Rubber boots La Crosse Burlys are great 79.00
Walmart Compass 4.95 ...if on public property a must
Skinning Knife 20-40 bucks..a must
Climber Stand...300.00 unless your own your own property..then build one in a tree.
camos look good but diffently not a must..shot my first 2 deer in jeans
Grunt and bleat calll 15.00 Primos ..a must

Summary...Rifle or shotgun..calls..knife...Stand either store bought or build one...boots and warm clothes..

That's it..you need to count the cost before starting archery..a used bow with all the extras would be your best bet..ARCHERY CAN BE EXPENSIVE...but very rewarding
