Private Pyle

Hello Everybody. I have always wanted to learn the ways of the hunter, but was raised by hippies who preferred the ways of PETA. I moved 2500 miles away from home and am now ready to learn. I live in Commack and would like to meet some people familiar with Long Island and the Hudson Valley for hunting. I've been enjoying reading this forum and thought it was time to reach out to others who have the knowledge and experience I am looking for. Any recommendations where to start? Maybe a good place to look for squirrel? I hope to learn from all of you. Thank you. -Matt
