That doesn't make sense to me. You're saying that I'm a bad guy for hoping that the competition in my areas eats their tags... But in the next breath, you're saying that you'll never give out permission to hunt your land or "bend over backwards to help them out."
To me, that's saying one thing,but doing another.
I'm not going to give out semi guided hunts to strangers or neighbors. I have my own things to worry about. I'm not going to invite everyone in the county to hunt my land to try to fill their tags or take the biggest buck on the property. If it happens on a neighboring property by a "gunhunter" and it was a buck that I've been hunting.... so be it. Good for them. What's so hard to understand about that. That's in no way contradicting.
