Welcome to the site Chessie.  You have come to the right place.  I think you'll find most of the guys on this site to be genuine, helpful and open.  I've sure enjoyed my time here.  Great to have you along.

I have found this to be one of, if not, the best hunting website/forums on the net.

The folks here are genuine and helpful and even an antisocial misfit like myself has managed to make a few friends here. Enjoy your time here, learn and teach what you can. It returns to you tenfold.

Welcome to the forum. And thanks for reminding me that I missed the turkey draw in my enthusiasm over all the other draws I'm working on.

Welcome!  Lots of good stuff on here, and great information to be found.  Once the turkey season starts up, it should pick up a little.  Then, it's pretty much full speed for 8 months.

Welcome to BGH. Do not hesitate to jump in and ask questions or post info on hunting. Great group here with a ton of knowledge. Good luck on the turkey. I plan to chase them to but just getting an OTC tag.

And I will add my welcome to BGH.  You won't regret the time spent on this web site - guaranteed! 

Speaking of turkey hunts - like you SGM I am going with an OTC tag this year here but also going back to SE Ohio in May to get my two turkeys there on Dad's property.  Can't wait!
