i have permission to hunt a piece of land that the owner told me just one other guy has permission to hunt. i didnt know who he was though.
one day i was sitting out all day...and at around 5 pm i see a guy walking down the hill in front of me. i was planning out my how i was about to tell this guy off and how i was gonna rip him a new one for moving in the woods just before prime time. turns out it was the other guy, an 85 yr old guy who could only move through the woods with a walking stick. he tols me it took him an hour to walk down the hill that i usually scoot down in 5 mins. i spent the rest of that night talking to him and i learned more about hunting in that night talking that i could in years "learning" from the web/books...
if you have a chance to talk to an ol timer about hunting, do it!!!
