Good way to get into hunting?

[biglabsrule]

first step huner safty,second step join a local shooting club [the people you meet there should be invaluable] practice practice practice , this will be even more valuable,third spend as much time as posible in the woods you might hunt this summer good god bless & good huntin

third one is a good point, I live in the woods so easy for me but get out there. I've been out cross country skiing for the last few months now. If that's not your cup of tea get snow shoes. Spend time out there, you get more observant the longer you're away from crowds of people. Last saturday I skied in a few miles, found a baby deer taken down by yotes, not much left and they had taken it just the night before by the blood in the snow. Also if you have land I like to be out cutting lines of sights right now, a few weeks from now you wont want to be in the melting foot deep snow. Then summer brings bugs!!! ahh!, I like to go by the loggers, they're skidding right now because the grounds frozen up, means I can ski in or snow shoe exc..
that's what I like to do, get down to instincts

Learning how to sit and not itch

Wow, Art, that'd be a good trick to learn. Can you teach me how? Face itchies (scratching) is my biggest hunting nemesis. Or did you just mean, learn how to not scratch the itch (mind over matter)?

As my Drill Instructor told me "Discipline, Recruit, will win over sand fleas everytime" He then proceeded to smoke me for itching.
