now for the negitive points ... the first day when we were drove out to our stands we were told that we would have to hike into the blinds because the 4X4 might get stuck in the snow ...I had almost a mile to walk and Glen had about a half of mile ...sit for 11 hrs a day staring up a very narrow cut line hoping to see a monster buck cross out of the bush ... between Glen and myself we put in 120 hrs in the stand ..hiking in and out while our outfitter set in his truck all day smoking ...drinking coffee ...listning to sports radio ...and napping ...
This is why I would never be an outfitter. Premadonas bitching about actually being forced to hunt.
while in my stand on the 2nd day I was so bored that I decided to shoot at my decoy about 100 yards away...
You're shooting at your decoy and you wonder why:
between Glen and myself we put in 120 hrs in the stand... .on stand we saw a total of 6 deer ...thats rightONLY 6 deer between the two of us in 120 hrs...
Maybe because you where shooting at your decoy!!!
I for one would have shot that borrowed rifle before I took it into the woods so that I would know where it was shooting.
I wasn't there so I shouldn't take sides
Listen I'm not very politically correct, and I've been known to run off at the mouth too much
Just my not so humble opinion! flame me

Shato you sir are intitled to your opinion ...but like you said "you were not there" ...we arrived in Edmonton around 2.00 on Sunday ...left the airport about 2.45 and arrived at the place we would be staying around 3.30 ...from there it would have been a hour drive to be able to shoot this rented rifle and we had yet to unpack ...also it get dark there about 5.30 and we were in the stand the next morning at 5.30 ...so yes had all things been right it would have made sence to shoot the rifle but there was just no time .... as fpr "flamming you" I think you do a good enough job at that yourself ..you need no help from me.
