I'm not new to hunting but new to Ohio.[Pa born and raised].
You'all need to put a new logo on you license plates. "YOUR IN OHIO NOW,WE DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY HERE". I've been here for about 2 1/2 years and I think I've got a slight understanding of your hunting and firearms laws so you may be getting a few ?'s thu out my visits to this site.
From what I've seen it looks like a pretty intelligent bunch of people on here. You better be careful or our TV sterotyped reputation of hunting and hunters might get tarnished.
Looking forward to "meeting" you

Welcome aboard, cloudbound. Good to have you here, you'll enjoy it.

I was born and raised in PA myself (Erie). Been living in Ohio 10 years in September, and yes, things are a little different here, but my transplant is rooting well, as will yours.

Looking forward to interacting with you.
