Hey guys,
I have been wanting to hunt for about 5 years now but couldn't because I was too busy with school. Now that I graduated, I really want to go on my first hunt. I am interested in big game and upland hunts. So being new to the sport, I have no idea where to begin to look for a spot (I'm from San Bernardino/Riverside area) and none of my friends are interested in the sport. I am hoping someone is willing to take me along even if it's just a scouting trip. I will be willing to chip in for gas. I really need someone to teach what to look for. To get myself, started I got my hunter education certificate, a Remington 700 in .30-06 (having some issues with that, but that's for another post lol), and a Mossberg 12 ga. It's probably too late for me to hunt deer this season but hopefully I will acquire the knowledge for next year.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me. I hope I will learn enough to go hunting.
