Thanks for accepting me to the group, I appreciate it. A little about me (long story short); I'm 45, family originally from NJ, moved to south GA when I was 7, pretty much grew up there, my wife, son and I moved to Murfreesboro in January of this year. My father was an avid outdoorsman, I remember him talking about his favorites; deer hunting, pheasant hunting, fly fishing, etc. I went with him a few times as a kid in GA, nothing serious (walk down the dirt road to the creek with the shotguns and shoot what we could, squirrels mostly is all I got). I always have wanted to seriously get into hunting, but never did. I don't have any hobbies, and would like something I can teach and share with my soon to be 5 year old son. My dad fell at home in late June of this year and died in the middle of August, it was very unexpected. So I am giving this a shot because one thing he always told me is "it's never too late, do it now, don't procrastinate, try something new, but do it now". I have all the gear I need (I think), I've taken classes with the TWF, researched the internet, watched tons of YouTube videos, been out to Pea Ridge WMA and Cedars of Lebanon a few times scouting and have some spots marked for the start of gun season this Saturday. I still have a million questions and hope to gain some tips, knowledge, what to and not to dos, etc. from the members of this group.
