Thanks for the comments and advice Nomercy. Really appriciate it! I do want to clarify tho, i never had any hopes that this guy could "take me from zero to hero". Thats obviously not practicle thinking. However i've hunted in areas that i know had lots of dogs around and have still failed so that does tell me i am in fact missing something that i was hoping i may figure out thru a class such as this. I have done a lot of research and reading but i've always been the type that learns 10 times as fast by seeing and doing and not just reading. The snaring part of it is what really has me interested now tho and again Thanks for the tips on that!! Any other info or tips would be great to see!!!
