RE: Are we really better off as hunters today?
I just got back from deer camp. I understand what everybody means by having to get permission and not just getting to go out and hunt. I stay with my buddy his grandfather and uncles. They all hunt the old fashion way. We do however have to go get permission from land owners. We live 2 1/2 hours away so we go up the day before opening day and ask all day. That night we go back to camp break into the captian morgans and play cards untill around midnight. Wake up the next morning and go tracking deer. We track all day then we pick a spot in the feild and sit through the evning. No treestands, feeders, or foodplots. Just the occiosinal corn feild and apple tree we find.
All I'm saying is that everyone may not be as frendily as they used to be but you can still enjoy your hunt and put meat in your freezer and the ocasional trophy on the wall if you really want to.
