[QUOTE="Ski, post: 5687002, member: 20583"] Thank you for your service. Marine Red Dog heli unit saved my butt in FOB Salerno, in more ways than one. Great group of guys to work with. Hunting is awesome. It's what we're built to do, and it's a great way to source clean meat. First step will be getting Hunter Safety card and then a hunting license. Buzzard Breath's link will help you get that going. Then you'll need to find some spots you want to try hunting, assuming you've got the appropriate weapon for the season. If rifle hunting there are an array of calibers that work well for deer. The hunter safety course will probably cover the basics. You also might check out some veterans programs for hunts. My sister in Ohio works for the VA and heads up a lot of the veteran benefit hunts & stuff. I'm not that familiar with any of the details, just aware that it's a thing. I'm sure TN has similar programs. If you're connected with the VA or other veteran groups in any capacity it might be something worth asking about. As for social media, if you're not doing it now then no need to start. I'd say pretty much any questions you'd have beyond the TWRA website could be answered on here if you asked. Folks are generally quite friendly & helpful as most hunters usually are. Otherwise, welcome to the campfire! [/QUOTE]
