I have four ways that work, but each has a different goal:

1) Take someone new and plan on doing much of the hard work for them just to be nice.

2) Hunt with family that you know and trust to have similar styles as what you want to do.

3) Go with a group, have minimal expectations, try to have fun and just roll with whatever punches come while maintaining a cheerful attitude.

4) Plan your own serious hunt, and allow others to come if they want to, but don't do the work for them and don't bail them out.
