Thanks everyone, I am glad I am not the only one that feels it is getting out of control. The one thing I did leave out was the road hunters who would pull up to the clear cut I was hunting and just stop. Motor Idling, and looking right at me.
It is amazing how lazy hunters are getting, waiting for me to walk into the woods and chase the elk right to them. It seems to work for them, but not my idea of hunting. If I killed an elk on the side of the road, and not have stepped more than 10 feet from the vehicle, I would quit hunting altogether. I didn' t kill an elk this year, but I have the satifaction of knowing I hunted hard. Riding a bike or walking in, makes it more enjoyabe to me. We walked 8 miles plus a day and beat the brush up and down the hills, in and out of trees. To me that is hunting.
If a guy has some sort of disability, I can understand hunting from a rig or on a road. But the laziness just makes me want to puke!!!!
If I offend anyone, too bad, Cause I am still fuming from the circus I observed out there. I am still in the process of looking hard for private land and have a couple tree farm owners that I am working on. Property has never been hunted. Probably bcause of the things I am venting about, but I am going to do my best to show them there are some responsible hnters out there. Anyway, there are a lot of other things that I didnt mention, like someone pointing their rifle at me to see if I was their buddy---Next time I just might point back. Use common sense out there Please!!!!!
