RE: poll on your age and how long you been hunting
I am 43 and have been hunting since I was 10. I was the oldest child in the family of 4 girls and my grandfather use to take me rabbit hunting. I was 5 the first time i went with him but I wasnt allowed to go alone till I was 10. I was a better shot than all my male cousins my age and got the nickname annie oakley. I cant even count all the deer and squirrels I have killed over the years. I didnt start turkey hunting until i met the man I am married to now. About 10 years. In fact I tell everyone that I married him for his lease. LOL It isnt true.

I turn 43 this month. I've been an avid shooter since I was 10, cutting my teeth down in Miami on rats running through the mango and avocado trees. There were few squirrels left there as the rats took over their habitat and started to take over their niche as well. I had a freakin' shootin gallery at night. I could fill a trash can a week with the bodies. I didn't start hunting until last year, at the invite of a friend from my wife's job. He hunts in a high-dollar club with a trophy rule - $1,000.00 fine if you shoot anything under 140. I was afraid to pull the trigger on anything. I'm hunting on my own now, and hope to bag my first deer this year!

I'm 24 and I started going out bowhunting with my dad at age 9 or 10. Started rifle hunting
at age 13 and got my first deer at age 14. After that I was hooked! Just recently started muzzleloading since my job prevents me from getting time off during rifle season.
