I found this forum a few days ago and in the short amount of time I was browsing, I found it very informative and helpful. So here I am, a gun lover and avid hunter from sw PA.
Actually my son turns 12 in July and will experience his first deer hunt this fall. I think I'm more excited than he is :)
His first rifle will be the Savage Youth Package in a .243, comes with a 3x9 scope, sling and the synthetic stock.Looks like a great outfit for the kid startin' out.
Anyhow just gettin' acquainted, so thanks !

Welcome, mrk270 - Glad to have you join us on the board.

Great to have you, and good luck with your upcoming hunt. Be sure to get plenty of range time in so he's ready to go.

Hi mrk270,
Hope your son has a lot of fun prepping for his hunt, what a great thing for a father and son to share, guess I'm about as new as you to the board but welcome anyhow! Regards, Bryan

Hey........thanks for the wishes, I quit counting a few years back. But with my son joining me in the field this year, oughta make gettin' older a little easier. I'm lookin' forward to the years ahead now :D
