Wow,had no idea there was this many trad folks in MS...Living in Greenville MS myself.
Became interested in this thread yesterday. I learned my daughter and her family (Air Force husband) will be stationed in Biloxi Feb-September.
My wife and I will visit (grandsons are terrific bait for grandparents) a few times before they move on. I hope to bow hunt MS turkey and maybe catch my first ocean-going fish!
Roy,
Sounds like your Daughter and Son and Law will be stationed at Keesler AFB, Biloxi, MS. I'm located about 25 miles northeast of there. Let me know when your in town may be able to get you in on some turkeys.
I didnt realize there were so many trad guys in MS either. It didnt seem to be that popular a few years ago but its been that long since Ive been to a 3D shoot.
Born and raised in Greenville, but now live in Tennessee. Still got some of that big muddy river running through my blood thogh.
