Default RE: I'm Back from Alberta

Whew. My eyes hurt after reading that. It's like a bad novel that you just hope gets better and so you can't put it down.

One post was not addressed at all due to the inflammatory way it was written. It was however full of points which popped into my head as I was reading. (not very tactfully put for sure but some interesting questions.)

Quick post here, I just spent quite a long time reading all these post about "Doc" hunting in Canda. I want to ask something why the he!! would you pay 4500 dollars to hunt whitetail? Why the hell would you fly in a plane to go hunting for whitetail? Why the hell would you have to have an outfitter? Why the hell would you have to go to Candada? Sounds like you dont have any common sense. From what I understand in past post they say your supposed to be a great hunter, and in magazines. Its sad to know as previously discussed that the people we watch hunting on T.V. are people just like you. People like yourself, think that they must tag "that big buck" that 160 that 140 what have you, but why cant you tag meat in your freezer, what would you pay 4500 dollars for any hunt, as much money as you have buy yourself some land. Learn to hunt like a real man. Why do you need some guy to run deer to you or show you where to hunt, I thought thats what hunting was all about, choosing your place, getting set up, sighting in your gun for the first time in 10months, getting up early eating biscuits and gravy and waiting for that deer to walk out within shooting range. When did it become ethical for someone to pay over 5000 dollars after airfare and such to tag a deer. Sounds plain dumb to me,10 acres will tag you a buck, my advice is buy 10 20 100 acres, then plan to bio logic, put up a trail camera, put a blind or buy a tree stand scout it yourself. Instead of being a city slicker and having someone else do the work for you be a man, and hunt, not purchase. Even leasing land is only a 100-1000 dollars, and you hunt anything year round. I dont blame the outfitter, im sure hes in the same mind as i "what an idiot, traveling by plane giving me 4500 dollars to hunt deer, and i dont even know if theres any out there he thinks hes gonna get one just cause its out of the u.s." thats what ran through his mind adios.
