Hi All,
My name is Todd and I live in Denver. I've been lurking on the site a while, but figured it was time to say hi.
I grew up in the 'burbs around NYC. I knew no hunters growing up, but it's always something I have wanted to do. I hoped one day I'd meet a friend who is a hunter to take me out and help me learn, but that's never happened (perhaps because I have always lived in cities).
Well, now I am 44 and have decided I am not going to let this dream die.
In 2019, I got my hunters ed card, and I went through CPW's Novice Pheasant Hunter Program. I met some people through that I have been out an a handful of bird hunts, but I did not feel confident in my skills or knowledge to try and pull any big game or turkey tags in 2020 (although I realize now that purchasing points was probably a good idea).
That said I am going to get tags for turkey, and deer or elk this year. Even if I come home empty handed I will have hopefully learned something, and a few days spent in the woods is better than pretty much anything else I might be doing.
I also have a young son and am hoping to learn enough in the next few years to start taking him out with me too.
If you're in the Denver area and looking for a hunting or range buddy, hit me up with a PM!
To the everyone else, hi, and thanks already for all that I have learned reading your posts.
