    Haha for me was like:
    Bow -19
    First used a gun - 19
    Pocket Knife - 19

    Just a question, since I am a bit strapped for cash right now, where would you say to buy my camo at? I was looking at BassPro and they have some shirts for $12, but I was wondering if I should get the full Scent Lock coverall type outfit but it's around $125, then again, I can also layer with that.

    Depends when your going hunting. Just deer hunting its not too important. Honestly, when I hunted I got my camo from the army navy surplus store. You don't see many of those around now days. You really just want something to break up your form. A buddy of mine hunted in red and lack flannel shirts. I had camo pants and jacket then wore a bright orange vest and hat. So honestly camo is not all that important. First dress for the cold. It gets freaking cold in the fall and winter months. Your going out before sunrise till 10 or so in the morning and going out at 3 till after dark. Its cold then and your climbing into a tree stand in the air, the leaves are mostly gone from the trees so they don't block the wind and your sitting still. So that 30 degree is a lot colder just sitting there in the wind waiting for a deer to stroll by. So my advice would be dress warm head to toe. I wouldn't worry to much about camo types you would honestly be fine in jeans and dark coat and orange clothes with a good base layer. The deer are going to smell you long before they see you. So research masking your scents on you and your clothes.
