Hunting season is here, and area hunters are once again lurking in the woods, hoping for a big kill (my husband included). The Internet provides a virtual storehouse of information on different types of hunting, gun and hunter safety, hunting tips, and even websites for ordering clothing and equipment.

If you're looking for bowhunting information, you'll find it at Bowhunting.Net. The site contains a live chat area, a bulletin board for asking questions or making comments, and a Trade-A-Hunt database where you can trade a good hunt for a hunt you want to go on. Looking for a hunting partner, or perhaps a listing of bowhunting organizations? You'll find both here.

For tips and articles on black powder hunting, visit the Black Powder Journal. Learn how to choose the right powder and how to sight in your muzzle-loading rifle.
