How do you find somebody local? I wish I could find somebody to trust.
do you have any friends that bet? good place to start. do you play golf, if so hang around pro shop some , once they know you they might be able to hook you up. be patient. can't just walk in and ask if anyone knows a book. local bar is good place too but again spend some time getting to know people first so they trust you.
