I would love to come up and shoot. (plus youguys would probably get a kick out of my shooting as well

) I could justify the expense as looking at it as a way to cheer up others and plus I love to visit that part of the country.

I could work the schedule to fit around any of those weeks but (and here's the kicker) I would prefer to do a little scouting while I am there. Do you have any neighbor's that do week leases or would let a guy pay to hunt? I know a lot of you guys hate leasing etc. etc. and while I understand your sentiment, I feel awkward about asking someone to "give me" what I see to be as a valuable commodity. That's why I usually ask to pay. Sorry, not meaning to rob the thread....
