Default RE: When do you clear shooting lanes?

ORIGINAL: valor10

I see. So instead of cutting trails in the spring or early summer that will allow you to get into areas safely, and QUIETLY, you'd rather bull your way through the brush at 5AM in October, making enough noise to scare anything within a quarter mile of you, let alone have briars ripping through your face? And instead of climbing your trees in the spring and early summer, in daylight, and surveying the area you're hunting making sure you've got CLEAR shooting lanes, you'll just fling an arrow or bullet at a deer at daybreakwithout really knowing what's between you and the animal? By the way, deer make TRAILS through the thicket, just like most of us.
Let me check.

Nope, I didn't say any of that.

I guess if that's what you see, you must be hallucinating.

You better continue to mow down the brush or hunt on the lawn where you can tell what is real and what is only in your own mind.

BTW, thanks for the path clearing job. I'll use your path when ever I'm passing through like every one else does. I hope a dozen guys walking the easy trail in and out doesn't screw up the deer movement in a spot you've put so much effort in to. I might even sit in your spot on the way out and eat a sandwich. If I kill any thing I'll leave his balls pinned to your tree. Right above every one else's cigarette butts who notice the landing strips you've plowed through the brush.

In the mean time, I'm more positive than ever that I'm in the right spot as every thing begins doing their business and changing trails trying to avoid the industrial park you've begun laying out. At least you'll have a clear shot. At nothing, may be a few dinks and first year dummies that don't know what's up yet. LOL.

Ya know you can get a blade attachment for your weed whacker that will really lay down the brush.
