which group to hunt with
 

Hey y'all
I'm kind a new at this but heres my question
I moose hunt with a group of guys that are very good hunters. They're perfectionists. They always fill the tags. but most of them are @#$%holes.
If I make a mistake, well i just can't make mistakes! and the 18hr. drive bothers the crap out of me but there are alot of moose there.
I got invited to go with another group of guys that are a little more laid back but where they go they are only guaranteed 1 tag and i'm also not sure how dedicated they are to going every year.
If I leave the group i'm with now, i'm out for good
what would you do

Do you wanna kill moose or have fun and relax?Only you can answer that question,and if your asking then I think you already answered your yourself;)

good point

This is a easy question. Go with the experienced guys, learn as much as you can from them. If you make a mistake just suck it up, everyone makes mistakes. Normally if you get a ribbing it mean they accept you, if they stop the ribbing then watch out. You can get years of knowledge from those guys you can apply in the future.

If I was spending my valuable vacation time and the group I went with was not fun and I had more fear over making a mistake or dread the 18 hour ride, I wouldn't go again. My vacation time, especially if taken away from my family is WAY to precious to waste on something that I won't enjoy. The meat will be gone shortly, the memories will be there forever.

Life is too short to hunt with jerks.

Amen, the experience is more important than the kill IMHO. The kill makes it that much better, but I remember the experience and hanigng out with friends.
