Winnie,
Good on you for joining the service. There is tremendous deer hunting on many installations and I am sure all of them in Alabama will offer some opportunities. They won't let you use your service rifle though. You'll have to bring your own rifle or shotgun and you may have to store it in the armory. Checking it out will probably be a pain in the azz. You would probably do well to store it with a friend who lives off base. Also, lots of bases offer really good bow hunting so you might consider that. I was able to keep my bow in my room in a case, but you will just have to find out what the rules are for wherever you will be stationed. What is your MOS going to be?
