I would rather stay home, then drive out there and fight the rest of the idiots for elbow room. ...
Being one of those, as you called us "the rest of the idiots",
I can guarantee you that I have more fun in the field any day, harvesting animals or not, than you can have staying at home and waiting for the pile of money to get high enough to hire somebody to “guide” you to make a kill. I usually have 4 big game tags, and success rate is 25% or 50%. The rest is enjoying being out there with the “rest of the idiots”. On the other hand, I will never get myself in a situationwhere "guides" drags me arround by my hand, tells me where to sit, where to look, aim and take a shot for 10 grand or more, just to have a rack on my wall, or come back home empty, like so many of the hunters that pay do.
Anyway, please watch your language, as it may offend people who hunt on their own, fair chase on public land.
