I have come late to this and I am not going to read through every post.I have read enough though.I am in favor of all legal methods and wish anyone well who goes about it ethically.
If I don't own the land there is nothing I can do about access,the land owner can give permission to whomever they want,if it is public land there is nothing I can do about it,another has as much right to be there as I do.
Do I hope certain area's don't get hunted,yes,do I hope bucks make it through, yes.
I love to gun hunt as much as I love to bow hunt.A good hunter is a good hunter,I don't care what their weapon of choice is.
