That is so true, I had my hunt ruined by HadleyCreek's swarm of hunters. What little fence row I had to hunt, Hadley Creek had guys every 300yds. lined up along the same fencerow. I pulled up stakes and left. Ate a 425 dollar license because of the money hungry, don't care who I screw,outfitters.

I can understand your frustration with the situation, but, calling outfitters lazy is pretty moronic. If you actually understood how much time, effort, and money went into being an outfitter, you'd change your tune. Then again, ignorance is bliss.
p.s. Nice first post.

First of all, there is public land you can hunt. Second, the only person you should be calling lazy is yourself. If you don't like it, then buy your own land which you shouldn't have any trouble doing if you are working 12 hours a day 6 days a week. If you're working that much and still can't afford to buy ground then you are a total dumbsh*t.
Outfitters may take "your" land away, but they pay huge dividends to the area. 1. The tourism they bring to West Central IL is huge. Without their business, local restaurants, hotels, and others couldn't survive. Just look at the Archery Shop in Pittsfield. A beautiful 3,000 sq. ft. building that would never be there if it weren't for outfitters coming into the area. 2. Without outfitters, the land management for deer would be terrible. Areas where deer were once starving now have food available year round. It also helps decrease the amount of crop damage deer cause to a farmer'scrop. 3.Farmers who once had little to no income from the timber areas on their farm are now seeing increased revenue.
Rather than complaining about "The Lazy People", maybeyou should think twice about what exactly outfitters do for this region and not what they do for you.

I'm gonna stay out of the debate over whether outfitters are good, bad, or neutral. But I will say that they couldn't do much of their business if landowner were not leasing their ground to them. And people do have the right to make money off their own land even if we (including me) don't necessarily like it.
The problem also goes beyond outfitting. There is not much of that in the part of Illinois where i own land and hunt. There, the price of land has gone from 400 to 2000 and acre because people, both local and out of state, were willing to pay higher and higher prices to buy land just to hunt on.
I know that deer hunting helps out local economies, but sometimes i wish that the population would drop about 75 percent. Things were a lot more fun before deer hunting became a big business and turned a lot of people into jerks.
