RE: Another debate thread
If the guide takes you out and puts you in a certain treestand then it is "shooting" and not "hunting". Like others said, the most enjoyment comes when you immerse yourself in the entire hunting experience, and not just shooting an animal. My uncle has been doing a rifle hunt in Alberta for the last few years and he has taken a few nice bucks. But when he described it to me I couldn't help but smirk. Not only do the guides put them in a certain stand but they are not even allowed to get down after they have shot a deer! They have to wait until the alotted time for the guide to come back and pick them up! I don't know how that would be considered enjoyable.
To each his own, but its not for me.
