Find a buddy
I know this is an ignorant question, but as I'm new to hunting and largely self-taught, it's the only kind I've got. I'm wondering if anyone out there in the Northeast Ga. region would like to hook up to do some hunting. I'm hunting with a rifle. I'll be solo hunting for now, as I can't find anyone, but I'll be grateful if anyone out there could show me some of the ropes as far as woodsmanship and huntercraft. Drop me a line. I'll hunt either Wilson Shoals WMA in Habersham county or Dawson Forest in Dawsonville. Drop me a line at my e-mail or just give me pointers. I'm open for anything.-Ed

RE: Find a buddy
eamont-
Glad to hear you're getting into it. If you own a private jet, I'd be happy to swap some hunts with you!
All kidding aside, I hope you have a chance to connect with a hunting buddy down there and learn the ropes.
Good luck!

RE: Find a buddy
eamont, i'll gladly give you this pointer.
NEVER HUNT ALONE.
But, sometimes we (you) have no other alternative. In this case point # 2 is the most important. That is to make a plan and stick to it. Learn the areas you intend to be in, study maps and ask around about the areas. Best to know about that drop off before it's a drop up. Let others know where you are going, which direction you plan to travel, which area you plan to be in and when you should be expected back. If we don't miss ya or don't know you should have been back we'll have no idea that there's a problem.
Carry a cell phone and keep an emergency/survival kit with you at all times.
I wish you luck in finding some new hunting buddies. Maybe try local sportsman clubs, their functions open to public (if you don't want to or cannot afford to join) or look for outdoors shows that attract similar minded folks.
