About a year and half ago I posted the message you see below in italics. At the time I thought that in a couple of months I would be able to start organizing a group, provided there was enough interest. Several of you responded positively, but then life threw me a curve ball and I have been indisposed ever since. Well, now I am finally free to try to make something happen. So to all you guys who live in MO or AR, or even eastern OK or southwestern IL, please chime in if you are still interested. What I imagine is renting a room someplace fairly central, like maybe Branson, and then just meeting up on the scheduled day. After we socialize and get to know each other a little bit, we can start tossing around ideas for trips that we might want to do. I know spring is here already, so maybe we won't meet until summer. But first let's see who's in, and go from there. It would be great if some of you younger guys wanted to join, because I could use some muscle on some of my trips. But naturally, everyone is welcome as far as I am concerned.
So let's hear it, fellas. Who wants to be among the first members of the Ozark Hunt and Fish Club?
I notice quite a few guys from the Ozarks region or thereabouts on this forum. I'm from St. Louis and do most of my outdoorsy stuff in the Ozarks, except for the occasional exotic trip to somewhere really cool. I'm wondering how much interest there would be in forming a group of guys to meet in person from time to time to discuss planning hunting and/or fishing trips. I'm in my late 50's, in decent shape, but just don't know many guys who like to do this kind of thing. If this sounds like something you would want to do, please chime in.
Remember, at this point I am just gauging interest, so all details will have to be determined later. Where and how often we would meet, how formal or informal we want it to be, etc., are things we would need to work out among ourselves. But I love to do both local and exotic trips, from crappie to king salmon, from squirrels to trophy moose. So if this sounds like something worth pursuing to you, let me know.
