Next summer I am leaving Phoenix. Its all but set in stone. Towards the end of this month I will be picking where I go. I want to shoot, fly fish, maybe get a boat. That kind of stuff. I will be working as a diesel tech and Boise looks nice from all the pictures I can find.
I like the wide open country, and I like mountains, but I would also like to be in a fairly large city with easy access to those features. (Not New York large though) Phoenix is a bit bigger than I would like at this point. Plus land wise the great outdoors is too far away now. I have to drive for 45 minutes to reach the outskirts, and a solid hour or more to really be able to do anything...and usually there are too many people around for shooting so I have to go even further.
One thing I really want to start doing is long range shooting. I have never competed, but I think it might be fun to start. I don't doubt there is plenty of land to shoot 1000 yards, but are there any 1000 yard ranges and do they offer competitions?
Whats the fishing like? Are the lakes good? Are there any lakes? I was told you have good fly fishing, so I assume there are at least a fair amount of rivers and streams.
Is there ever going to be a professional baseball team? I know..... but I just had to get that out of my system.
Oh ya, I am still college age ...ish. Whats the nightlife like? I don't need Miami beach, but I also don't need lights out at 8pm.
