Hey everyone!
I'm brand spankin new to bowhunting. Actually, even newer than that. I'm still in Afghanistan, last pump before I close out the last 8 years of my life. Anyways, I picked up a buddy's Bowhunter magazine and developed an obsession! I've always been interested in hunting, especially bowhunting. But being that I'm from Pasadena, and come from a family of non-hunters, I never really got the opportunity to hunt. I get back stateside in March/April, and plan on going to a hunter's safety/knowledge course and plan on purchasing a mid-class bow, lookin at the Bear Legion. I did a little archery when I was stationed in Hawaii, and found I had a talent in the sport, so I'm sure I'll progress. I dont want to outgrow a beginner's bow within the first year, which explains why I'm wanting to go with the mid-class bow. Also, I plan on just buying the bow, some arrrows with practice broadheads, and a target. And I plan on tearing up that target before even TRYING to hunt. It's funny, I lived in California my entire life (up until I enlisted) and never knew we had such a strong hunting community! It's great to find out I won't have to travel far to meet people with the same obsession as me! All in all, I wanted to jump head first into this forum and learn as much as I possibly can before I get back so I can hit the ground running!
Thanks for reading, and happy hunting!
