A P&Y is a P&Y is a P&Y.
An outfitter can do all the leg work; the scouting, the stand hanging, the food plot planting, etc. He can set you in a stand and tell you approximately when the deer will enter the location.
However, when it comes right down to it it is the hunter who pulls the trigger and takes the animal's life. I'll pat anyone on the back, shake their hand, and congratulate them for a fine kill just so long as they don't try to pass it off as a non-outfitted kill.
So how is a P&Y a P&Y than? You really didn't answer my question..... You say you will congratulate them either way. I will congratulate them either way as well, although I do not respect the outfitted kill as much as a DIY.... What I asked is do you respect an outfitted kill equally to a non outfitted kill?[/align][/align][/align]I am not against outfitted hunts and may even go on one, this isn't the question.... Just the "respect" associated with it.
