No true offense taken VA.. it's just right here..
I thinkyou couldlearn something from me and many otherson the hunting side of this tradtion if you were listen. Remember Jeff, guys like myself, Jim. Dan, Schultzy, can remember when deer were not so numerous, and when I was young and beginning I grabbed on to advice from the old guys and soaked it up. We have seen it when herds were much smaller 15-20 yrs ago
You made (or I interpretted it as) You were among a different class of hunters as you have been in the woods during changing times.This expirience made you appreciate things differently. While I share some of this belief. I do hunt better bucks, (call it rack hunting, trophy hunting, whatever) for the challenge.
So while we come from similiar backgrounds and home-raisings
, our goals now have evolved differently. No right or wrong..just different.
