I was in the same situation, grew up in the city with plenty of exposure to the outdoors, but never got into guns and such till I hit 18. A few years later I'm into guns like mad but have as yet only shot one critter, and that was pest control, not hunting.

It helped me to find friends who were into guns and had land to shoot on to learn and practice safe firearms usage. I don't have my own land yet, but have the knowledge to pass on.

What I guess is the first thing to ask is are you 18 yet? If not, everything you do with guns is going to have to involve adults in some way. Next, your location is very important, as it will relate to gun laws, types of hunting, and a lot of stuff.

In any case, WELCOME! Glad to have you here on the forums and I hope we can all be of help to you.
