It's about time to introduce myself

[Ebstein]

Hi all. I am from Wisconsin. Married, 3 adult kids. I'm the boiler operator for a local hospital. I have hunted whitetail for 30 yrs. I started watching Randy's show on YouTube sometime after Covid started. That led me to some other channels, particularly HUSHIN and Born and Raised Outdoors. They all have a common theme. Each channel says that "anyone can come out west and do this". Well, that's what led me here. Our kids are all adults now and I am going out west to hunt. I have just recently started buying points for elk, mule deer, and antelope. I love whitetail, but I really want to hunt the above mentioned animals too. I feel like we are held back as hunters here. I told my family and friends I'm doing a western hunt somewhere next year. So far, I have no takers on a hunting buddy. That's ok, I like being with myself. The search function here has some amazing info.
Thanks. Bryan

Welcome aboard from the U.P. of Michigan. I took my first hunting trip out west in 2011. Been going somewhere every year since.
Just beware, hunting will never be the same at home after you go.
I think Antelope is a good way to get started.

Thanks. I’m down in Green Bay.
That’s exactly what I’m hoping for. I do have a point for antelope in Wyoming and Montana. I will probably try to start with one of those. I have elk and muley points as well.

Oh, thank God. You’ll know to pick up your flat brim before crossing into mountain time!

Welcome from IA and have fun on your western adventures

Welcome to HT! Had the same experience... saw the show, found the forum, started hunting out west. I did have the good fortune to have a group of guys who became like minded. Good luck!

I did notice that. Unstructured, curves hills are for me.
