People looking for hunting parners or mentors, or people willing to mentor. Even if a person is new to hunting, and just needs someone to ask questions of.

Many times a mentor can teach things or point out things a new person would never maybe think about till it's too late.

Like ducks land and take off into the wind sure makes sense right. But same said wind can push a dead bird too far out and kill a dog, or push it towards the shore line so you can just walk along and pick them by hand.

I have all my credentials and I'm an quick learner and promise not to be a bother, I would just like to learn and get out there with people that enjoy it as much as I know I will.

Thanks,

Mandie :)

I'd normally offer to a person younger, such as yourself, but being 8 hours apart it would be next to impossible. Don't give up though cause we want you younger one's getting involved

Mandie,

Your request isn't silly or desperate at all. Everyone needs help getting started in this past time. This is a great forum to meet people. Some people are more forthcoming than others. Be patient.

I can't help you right now. I don't turkey hunt (have taken the course, tried it, just not my thing). I only shoot yotes when they are a problem for a landowner. Come fall, if you want we could go for a waterfowl hunt if you are interested. Do you have a bow? I mainly bowhunt for deer.

Dyth

Funny, a young man comes on and its "Get out pound the pavement, develop relationships with farmers" etc. A young lady comes on with the same request and offers are all over:)

Good luck Mandie once you get the hunting itch it never goes away:)

I thought the "Get out and pound the pavement, develop relationships with farmers" was implied.

Lol @ skeeter... I thought the drooling old lechs kept themselves pretty well contained this time.

For accuracy's sake... Didn't the lad recently just post that he wanted to be pointed to good hunting property VS Huntress' request to connect & form relationships with fellow hunters?

Point taken but she's not necessarily just looking for a place to hunt but people to hunt and share the experience with. Not gonna get that by just pounding the pavement.

My entire point was the differences in responses by the community when a young lady asks for help, actually nothing to do with the content of the request and I posted it light heartedly hence the smiley face, so I think you may not have got the whole point.

With that being said I have taken out several young hunters from this form so I am not trying to offend anyone, rather just state the obvious :)
