Default RE: Bowhunters - do you root against the gunners?

Ican't be the only one that sees this as two completely different things. Wishing your fellow hunters success and having someone hunt in your spot so they can be successful are two different things. Now the "same herd" thing I can understand, I might want my buddies or others hunting near meto be successsful just not on that 10 pointerI have been hunting, I get that, we areall(most) men hereand by nature competitivebutto saywe don't want other huntersto be successful because we don't letany and everybodyhunt our stands isa stretch.

If a person is a hunter I would think he has weapons to hunt with, available land, and game to hunt and I honestly hope he is successhul in that. Now do I hope he is successful to the point that if he is not I will put him on my stand? Is that my job/reponsibility? Honestly, if it is a kid or afriend or a very green hunterthen yes I will go out of my way to help them but to saythatevery huntershould do that for everyone is more than a little past unrealistic.
