Hello and welcome. Hope you get the info you need. Probably the North Carolina Hunting Fishing State office can help

Welcome! I'm not familiar with N.C. but if you plan to hunt there you need to read the current hunting regs anyway. A Remington 30-06 is deadly on whitetails. Good luck.

Welcome to the forum ! We all had to start somewhere, you're just starting a little later

My advice on shortening the learning curve: If you have good friends that hunt, ask for help. Failing that, subscribe to a couple of magazines that deal with deer hunting. Deer and Deer Hunting would be one I'd recommend. North American Whitetail might be something you're interested in also. Newbies can still benefit from the how-to articles in these mags. I'm sure as you learn, you'll have questions. Most of them can be answered here by folks that don't mind helping. Good luck Sir !
