re: Embarrassed about this, but can you start hunting later in life?

I don't really have neighbors/friends who hunt with beginners.

Have you asked them? You'd be surprised to find that experienced hunters are often very willing to get newbies into the sport. We all started somewhere, whether we were 4 or 40.

Maybe they won't take you on their prized elk hunt to Idaho, but they'll likely point you in the right direction to get started!

Good Luck, Enjoy the experience.
