Since I was a wee boy I've always been an avid fisherman. I fished everywhere from Maine to Thailand, and love just about every type, deep sea, surf, fly fishing, handling. If I had to pick one spot to fish the rest of my life, it would be the Chesapeake in Fall.

I've hunted on occasion, dropped a few deer in my younger years, but never really got the sport of shooting an unsuspecting target with a high-powered scoped rifle. Went one time with my uncle, and he taught me the art of bow hunting. This is a sport. It is also incredibly difficult, expensive, and time consuming, which is why I never got any good at it.

I still camp often, as a boy scout back in the day, we hiked about 2/3s of the Appalachians, and in the military years later I had the opportunity to realize how much I loved and missed backpacking in California, the Carolinas, and parts of Asia. We try to do it as a family now twice a year.

Went hunting for waterfowl this past monday.  We got out to the fieldblind at 630am, and did not get a shot all morning.  Went back out in teh afternoon and shot a goose.  The guy i was with does all of the calling, and i think he sucks since he hasnt called in a damn goose or duck all year, and he never switches up his calling.  Anyone have any tips for calling? 

I ended up getting the Mosin Nagant 91/30 rifle.  Ended up being 90 bucks after shipping/fee's from the dealer.  It fires 7.62x54r rounds.  I bought some Silver Bear Ammo for it which is according to reviews out there pretty good ammo.  We took it out at the farm and shot off a few rounds.  These rounds absolutely shredded some trees from 60yds, enough that there was a tree limb that was 10 inches thick, and it hit the side of the limb, cutting a 1 inch deep channel all the way thru.  Ready for zombies and deer
