Default RE: Are hunters selfish??

Simple answer, yes. Probably no more than most otherpeople but definitely yes. Certainly not all and that is what is important. I like the posts from Rob and PT. I have seen all kinds of jealousy and selfishness in hunting but choose to focus more on the good aspects or people. I have hunted with lots of different hunters over the years and realistically there are only a handful that I still hunt with regularily because they were more aboutenjoying the hunt and our time afield thanbeing competitive(even though we definitely still compete, there is a friendly comradery to it and a genuine excitement and happinessforwhoever scored). We learn from each others mistakes and can't wait to get back to camp to relay our sightings/stories.We enjoy taking new people out(young or old) and have found that a good way to find hunters that huntlike us is to mentor new ones and try to instill some of the older hunting traditions into them.
