I live in Maryland so... Plan to hunt deer in Maryland next year. I've given a few halfhearted attempts to learning and playing the points game out west, but keep getting discouraged by reading about points creep so currently have 0 points anywhere. I should have just bought the gohunt app/points info thing.
I am hoping my plans to go back to Alaska include a spring bear hunt, but there's a pretty good chance it'll "just" be a fishing trip. a salmon/halibut/dungeness crab trip is freaking awesome, so I have a hard time phrasing it that way.
Edit: spring black bear trip is cancelled, September blacktail /possible brown bear trip booked. May go fishing in July as well. second edit 5/31: fishing trip confirmed!
And I may have an invitation to hunt pronghorn in Colorado on a family friend's ranch. What I've just said is basically all I know, so that's a long shot (see what I did there? Lol)
In the spirit of you miss every shot you don't take, if you've got a spot available on a future hunt and are willing to take a risk on a saddlehunter.com stranger, I'm game and would of course pay my way/carry my weight/ not burn your spots/all that good stuff. Pretty unlikely that this post results in a new hunting partner but there it is anyway. I'd reciprocate as much as possible, full disclosure that currently the Alaska and Colorado aren't my trips to share currently but I'm building up knowledge and will have some trips that I lead/would be willing to invite someone new on as well in a few years.
