Been a lurker for awhile now and I have decided to join in on some of the chit chat. Don't worry, I'm not going to ask where your best hunting spots are in your state!
I'm 31 and live in central Oklahoma. Lived here all but 2 years of my life, which was in Kansas during my first two years of college. Unfortunately, I didn't really hunt then! Anyway, I currently hunt whitetails, turkeys,hogs, coyotes, and started squirrels this year. I've recently picked up the hog hunting out of necessity/annoyance and have backed off coyotes. They just don't taste as good as a nice deer. I am a somewhat "new" bowhunter, but have really become almost obsessed with it. I do hunt public land exclusively and in Oklahoma, its no easy feat. I do find some spots around to hunt that don't have "northern" amounts of pressure, but it still is limited public.
This season, I will be headed to Wyoming for an early October antelope hunt with a buddy that hasn't hunted before. We'll be truck camping. I'll return and finesse my way into some nooks and crannies of Oklahoma public lands looking for some bucks. Then, my late season hunt is looking to be Arizona OTC archery Coues/Mule deer. Might be solo, if I can't convince my tightwad hunting buddy to drop some money on the tag.
Look forward to interacting and trading ideas with you folks!
