What part of the world you call home?
Bought my first gun when I was 9 a hawkins 50 in a kit took my first deer with it the second season i had it. Been buying ever since, got quite a collection, in my whole life only sold two, and they were friends that were constantly begging and barrowing them any way, let them go for next to nothing.
Here in the south there's a thriving white tail population lots of turkey, and wild pigs too, tracked a black bear once, and saw a cat in the distance bout the size of a Shepard. Here in bama the deer are a bit bigger than the marsh deer in south louisiana, but ain't nothing like the northern northwestern game. Texas had a healthy population, I really like the long shot out in west texas.
Love to fish, but I've been spoiled, louisiana is a fisherman's paradise, and having worked offshore, got hooked on fishing by the platforms, (pulling them up two at a time) man made reef.
Now spear fishing the platforms is something else entirely different, you go down there and kinda pick out the one you want. I had the boat, a buddy I worked with had the dive gear (dive master) and after the first plunge, there was no turning back. Double certified naui and pati now. Closest to zero g on earth you can be, properly weighted you inhale you ascend you exhale you decend, and act like a graceful Ballerina in between.
A Real Smoke house is on my to do list, I like that cold smoke. I have a couple of barrel smokers and will do in a pinch, but when i get the time and a few dollars ahead.
