Hey all, new guy here from Southwest MO. I'm a long-time whitetail hunter and a run-and-gun turkey chasing addict. Also an avid fisherman, especially for crappie (which is the reason for the screen name). I'm afraid I've caught the fever to do a DIY western hunt, though at this point I am torn between elk and antelope with a rifle or muzzleloader. I know chasing animals in the plains and mountains is going to be a learning curve from what I know, but I have extensive past experience backpacking/camping in the mountains so I'm hoping I can make a semi-competent go at a first trip this year. However, for a flat lander used to buying OTC tags for turkey and whitetail, there are an overwhelming number of options and decisions to make. This forum has already been a great source of info and I'm trying to soak it up! Big thanks in advance to those who take the time to share their knowledge and experience on here, and best wishes to all for 2018!
