Am I expecting too much?
I went out to sit in my stand this afternoon. When I got there I could smell something rotting as I was sitting there. After a couple hours I couldn't take it anymore so I was going to get down from my stand. I stood up and noticed that someone had hung a stand about 40 yds from mine. I hunt public land so I know it's not only mine but I couldn't imagine hanging a stand that close to someone elses.
I decided to call it a day and take my stand down so I could try and find another spot. I found what was rotting someone left a gut pile about 70 yds the other direction from my stand.
I guess the point of my rant is I guess I figure someone could at least drag their deer further from another's stand location before they gutted it. Also I always figured if someone already had a stand in a location before I got mine there it was their area to hunt. Maybe I'm expecting too much.
