RE: Taking time off from work W/O pay to hunt...
Being self employed ,that is the case every day I take off. Now that the kids are grown and I do not worship the cash as much ,I now take most of the hunting season off.I am just as poor as when I was young but much happier. Those high priced hunts I did like 3 tripes to alaska I had to work for 2 years straight and every other weekend to cover the expense of a DYS hunt for moose or caribou,but would do it again if I had to save for a hunt like that .I do not know how I will ever do a required guided hunt like grizz, sheep or goat but I'll find a way someday.My next dream hunt is for goats.Keep working and dreaming and You can do it.
