Sir,

You didn't plan very well. You should have planned enough time to shoot your weapons upon arrival. Even if you were able to take your own rifle you should have shot it to make sure that it wasn't damage by the airlines. Maybe, the guy didn't provide the amount of service you thought you deserved. I can't argue that fact. I think he was a jerk for asking you to pay for the loan of the weapon. But, I don't buy the complaints about the hunting.

I don't buy the complaint about you had to walk a mile into your stand. BooHOO! You were "bored" while hunting so you decide to shoot your decoy in the middle of the day and you wonder why you're not seeing deer.That sounds like something my youngest boy would pull. He wanted to shoot squirrels while we were deer hunting.

I don't think you grasp the concept. Low animal movement is one of the things that happens. Heck, I've spent way more money than what you did and come home empty handed. One week I hunted for 7 straight days in rain, snow, fog, & sleet. Clumb numerous mountains. Spent one night on the mountain in grizzly country, because we hunted too long and couldn't get off before night fall. froze my tail off, didn't have enough food..... in the end I went home with nothing more than three Cows being spotted. Thats the way it goes sometimes. Don't like it, don't go.
Thank you for your opinion "Grizzly Adams" .... like you said before ..."you were not there" ...nuff said ..
