Yep, lots about the NE that I didn't know.  I've spent a lot of time over the past few years training folks there for NASP.  Things I've learned:

1. They have lots of wild places.
2. They have more diverse wildlife than where I live; Moose & Bear.
3. Even before NASP they had more schools teaching archery than my state did.
4. They talk funny (sorry -Ha).

The worst parts about the region are the liberals, no hogs and coldish winters.

Lol, you southern boys make me laugh. There's quite a few few of us rednecks up here. Just gotta get away from the big cities and all them yuppies. Ya'll be surprised at what you might find. The Adirondacks is a pretty big chunk of wild lands. Although I'm located on the doorstep of the Allegheny mountains, Zoar valley/ springville area to be more specific. Pretty nice country, friendly people to.

Liberals are OK hunting buddies too. Who talks politics in the treestand anyway? Hunting camp id for hunting stories and cold beer, not rhetoric and debate. ..... unless we're debating trad vs training wheels.

You see Maryland is right smack in the middle of the North east and lots of Tradhunters in my part of the woods...You can tell the True tradhunters from the North cause we have this twang in our voice...Maybe 5 every 10 square miles or so and some of those migrated over here from the Western shore!    :D
