Ok I admit I too have been a lurking here for I think 5 years. I live in NW Oregon and there's lots of hunting and fishing. however I have started late and either my friends that hunt already have a group or have quit hunting all together. I am not rich and it would take me a year to save up for a guided hunt. I had thought it would have been easier to find a hunting buddy that would take on a rookie.
Still looking.
