Newbie fixing to purchase some gear need advice...

Take one of those zip lock bags that crow was talking about and put you a role of toilet paper in it.

Take another one for your shells, too!

thanks for all the help everyone.

I am going to wait until next year to try to call. I probably will go ahead and pick up a double reed call to try to learn something before I go out and try it by myself. A co-worker has said he is going ot carry me a couple of times this year and I have what looks like two guided hunts booked for this year. That should be just enough to get me hooked

Crow......I always carry that one ziploc bag of tp when outdoors....whether in the boat fishing or in the field deer hunting....that's a definite necessity

I'll go check out those decoys at buck n bass this weekend. I may pick up 6 or so dozen to get started with. I'm also going to look into the other things mentioned. Thanks again for all the info.

Truth be told there are tons of good stuff out there to get started with, I use Lacrosse 600gr. hip waders, the same gun you have with the factory mod. choke and it will kill a limit if there is one there to be killed and I am a fan of Duck Commander calls, to learn calling check out the Ole Raspy. There is 2 more cents added to the millions of dollars worth of advice.

a new benelli super black eagle
a new floating gun case
a new hunting boat w/ new avery pop-up
a new mud motor to push said boat around
a new 4x4 fourwheeler
a new trailer to haul it
a new 4x4 truck to pull that
a new roboduck, or 2 or 3
a new mallard machine
a new pair of gloves
a new 4-n-1, 2 piece jacket
a new dog
a new place to live when the wife finds out how much you just spent!
that, along with EVERYTHING else mentioned, should get you started.

It would be cheaper to take up golf, or some other hobby.

but nonetheless welcome aboard!

Super Black Eagle overdid the list (although those are GREAT things) but the one thing I saw that I think is a must is the Floating gun case. I think that it is law in most places to have the gun in a case until you get in the pit and you will accidentally drop your gun sometime or another. It is nice to have that. The Mojo Mallard is great too. Adds motion to the spread.
