Surely to god you realize their are more inputs than just property when you go on a guided hunt. How much does it cost you to hunt deer in your back yard...forget shells, guns, tags but fuel to scout/hunt, equipment required, food, lodging if required,etc??? I will not bring myself to add up how much it costs me to chasing whitetails each fall b/c it would probably make me cry.It cost to hunt, we all know that and nothing is assured for those costs.

My only reason for posting to this thread was your attitude or comments that guide was nothing more than a driver. I could really care less if you tip or not..it means squat to me personally. I just was hoping you'd possibly seea guide is instrumental to your hunt asthe outfitter himselfand certainly is doing more than just taking you to and fro.

If a guide took the same attitude you "the hunter" would be nothing more than a shooter...since thats really all your doing!!! This was never my attitude but if the shoe was put on the other foot how would you react?

Best of luck to you.
