Hello All

My name is Mike, or as I am commonly called, Spizz, on account of my last name.  I am a big fan of the outdoors; hiking, fishing, shooting firearms, and hunting are a few of my favorite activities.  The only thing is that I am pretty new to is hunting.  I have been shooting bow for a few years now and last year was actually my first time hunting.  I went out and stalked around for a while and ended up empty handed on the two runs I made in the end of the IL season.  I have been fishing for as far back as I can remember.  I can chalk that one up to my Grandfather Darrell Taylor, who is a pretty well known outdoors writer, who had gotten me into and progressed my fishing skills and interest.  I have a great respect for the outdoors, wildlife and the capabilities of firearms and projectiles.  I feel like this is very important and may not be instilled in many people these days.

I wanted a way to share with everyone the experiences that I have.  I am pretty new to the hunting scene and am attempting to learn anything that I can about it.  Please keep checking in with my blog to see how I am progressing.
