Rod and Gun clubs are a good way to get into hunting/fishing ! As mentioned by "Doc" before networking is an excellent way to find hunting ground . Seasoned hunters generally welcome new hunters into the fold (so to speak) !
I have to agree with most all of what has been said , It would be nice to be able to know exactly what would be the perfect match for myself and mine , but too many different things can affect the outcome ! Tough choices ahead !
