In the past few years I have accompanied my boyfriend/his friends/his dad when they have gone hunting.
From watching I have learned how to field dress and skin a deer, clean and skin a rabbit and tanned it too! I have shot a .22 and well I am a pretty good shot. Now I feel that I can do more.
Last year I took my Possession and Acquisition course $160 and passed so now I may own a gun. Just last week I passed my Conservation and Outdoor Recreation Education (CORE) course $175 so now I can get a hunting license.
On Wednesday of last week I purchased a Tikka T3 Lite 270, with a Leupold VX-1 (3-9x40). I now realize getting setup for hunting is not going to be a cheap en-devour. The gun, the scope, a soft case, a strap, scope mounts and mounting have run me approx $1500 and we bought it at Italian Sporting Goods.
Picture is blurry.... better ones to come.
I still have a long list of things I need to purchase before our first trip out Sept 15th-21st.
