Lastly, in Illinois, if it wasn't for the outfitters, your state would be a joke right now due to the horrible management that the state DNR has done. It has been the outfitters and private land owners keeping that state in the topslot for B&C whitetails.
You are exactly correct about that. The state of Illinoishas donenothing to help the management of the deer heard. I 100% agree with you on that. Even with what the outfitters are doing trying to balance the population and what not, it is still out of whack.


Its pretty much like anything else in life, some people like it and some people dont. Outfitting is a business just like anything else. Land owners have found a way to make more money off their land becausehunters are willing to pay the money. So why do you blame the outfitters for leasing the land? It is a business! If you dont like it then start your own outfitting business and go lease the land you want. Or if you have always hunted that ground then go pay the landowner more than the outfitter is willing to pay an dlease it yourself. You cant expect to have everything free forever just because you had it for a for years. Its not the welfare system! The people whoare so against outfittersare the ones who cant afford them or have lost land to them because they afford to lease the land for themselves. Its just the way it is.Its a business just like anything else. I am sure thatmany people that are against outfitters are in some business themselvesthat I can piss and moan about.
