Like said before most guides dont make the money. for a 3 day turkey hunt i got paid a hundred bucks a day. and this wasnt just a sitem down and leave. we had to take them out, put out the setup, get them in position, call the birds, all while coaching the hunter. and this goes on till you get them a bird or until 1pm. lol
Now that being said if the guide doesnt do his "job". then he may not deserve a tip. I know alot of the guides i worked with didnt do it for a living. they took time out of there regular life where they made alot more money. same as me. i dont really do it for the money. I do it cause i love to and for the experience.
but if i take you out and call one of the biggest gobblers I have ever seen into 25 yards and you dont shoot and then try to blame it on me. you got another thing coming.(sorry had to rant on that one this year)
