Well I don't know Chuck well enough to make a judgement on him one way or another, nor do I believe does anyone else in here. His accomplishments, however, speak for themselves.

I whole heartedly agree with Adams about hunting with guides. I just don't have the desire to do so. It's not even a monetary issue. Sure my chances of killing a bull or a buck increase but my satisfaction level would go down disproportionately. I am not knocking anyone else for doing so it's just that some have different priorites than others. For some it may be all about the kill but for others it's mostly about the hunt coupled with the kill. I see the benefits of having someone there to scout etc. but for me I would rather do it myself and go home empyty handed than pay someone else and go home with a bull or buck that all I did was shoot.
