Geez, glad that little tiff is over 
Actually Pete, I have to go along with RR on this one, as it did sound like in a lot of your posts that you were being negative towards the way people were saying they hunted and telling them they could/should do like you are always saying your favorite method of hunting is on various threads. Maybe that's not the way you think or intended, but that's the way it did sound to some of us.

No, actually, I don't want anybody hunting like me. That would put them in the timber where I am.
As I tried to explain. When someone says they can only hunt one way. I try and point out there may be other ways they can try. I'd prefer they just say they hunt a certain way, because they like it, and it's what they want to do. I never say a peep when they do that. I might say i'm not a fan of a certain methods, but that doesn't mean i'm telling anybody to do it my way.
I understand that still hunting is not a popular way to hunt, and I don't try to talk anybody into doing it. If it sounds like I am. It wasn't my intention.

You could try using your hunting skills instead of a dogs, or bait.
the more he posts the harder it gets to digest

You mean the way you just told me the way I hunt is the easiest way to hunt. Is that how I should act? Thanks for the tip.
btw How come i read all the time that still hunting is the most difficult way to hunt. Probably why is isn't more popular. Do you think it's not popular, because it too easy for everybody?

typical muley response, he could stand between Christ and a fence post and argue with both if they didn't agree with him, then swear up and down he was just explaining.
OK muley, let me have it, what is so diffacult about still hunting?
wind in face....step..........step........look for one minute
RR
however you never answered the question, why it matters so much to you how others hunt, besides its different from the way you do it, so therefore it appears its not right

I wish I could spot and stalk or still hunt where I hunt because I get bored and cold sitting in a tree stand. But it's thick where I hunt and we spook more than we see. In the overgrown clear cuts, blueberry and laurel thickets, you're not going to see a critter before it heard you coming. There are some open areas on bordering state game land, but big game do not hang out here because there is no food or cover there. Just mature maples and ferns.
It is what it is. This is where I hunt because it's our land, I grew up hunting there and I love it.

I'm going to give you an example of why you don't understand what I say.
I said to 308..."You could try using your hunting skills instead of a dogs, or bait."
You took that as me looking down on him. Wrong slick!
I was acknowledging that he had other skills, and why doesn't he try them. That is not looking down on him, but suggesting he try another way.
Now, if I was really looking down on him like you suggest. I would have said.
"You might as well hunt from a tree, because you have no hunting skills"
Is it hard for you to see the difference? I run into guys like you on forums all the time. You claim I said something, because it's what you want to read. Either that, or you don't understand what people say.
As for your claim that still hunting is easy. It just shows your ignorance to the method. You seem to think it's just taking a step, and looking around. Why don't you go try that, and see how it works out for you.
It's like me telling you that long range shooting is easy, because all you do is sit on your butt glassing. Pretty silly when you just look at one small part of a hunting method eh?

my reading comprehension is fine, you my friend constantly make those kinds of posts then when called out start dancing around.
say what you mean, mean what you say or don't post, its that simple, it wasn't this thread, it wasn't this week, its been going on ever since you showed up here, your from Colorado, you know nothing about hunting in the east, especialy in the mountainous regions of the east, yet knowing anything doesn't matter does it.
