No worries. I'm 100% with you that a DIY hunt on public land is more rewarding. Thats all I do here at home with the once and a while invitation to hunt private for a weekend lol.
As I get closer to trying to go after a muley or game in another state I'll be for sure on here asking questions as to the how, when and where. But with less and less people willing to help its not making it easy.
