The beginning mushroomer should do two things:
Make your first several mushroom hunts with someone who knows mushrooms. (2) Buy a mushroom guidebook. Best guidebook on the market is
The Mushroom Hunter’s Field Guide
Like any other outdoor recreation, mushroom hunting is safe for the person who learns the rules and plays by them. It is a foolhardy pastime for the ignorant or the careless, be prepared to cover a lot of ground, and don’t expect to find them easily if you are new at the game. Your eye for morels will sharpen with experience. One place to look for mushrooms is in recently burned areas and high-ground stands of hardwoods with plenty of leaf cover.
A sure way to lose a friend
sharing a double super-secret location with a so-called friend
only to return year after year and never find another morel
And another thing people who use paper or plastic to hold the shrooms they have found
should be double tapped without question as why you did shoot them?
well it’s like this officer, shrooms multiply by spores, using paper or plastic stops them from returning next year.
