FNG from AZ

[0uTkAsT]

Long time lurker finally decided to sign up.

I'm a single dad from Gilbert, AZ with a 6-year-old daughter who loves the outdoors as much as I do. We've been camping, off-roading and exploring backcountry together since she was in diapers, but I've just recently started getting her into hunting and fishing. We started off small with squirrel and rabbit hunting and have a coyote hunt coming up soon, but next year we're hoping for a deer, elk or pronghorn tag.

I'm a novice myself, only having done a few guided big game hunts out of state in the past and some small game hunting as a teenager. The full-service guided hunts were fun but I don't think I learned a thing really, so I'm trying to absorb as much knowledge as I can before heading off into the field for our first DIY hunts next year.

Can't take all the credit, she's hooked and asks me when we can go out next all the time!
