[QUOTE="Bama, post: 85065, member: 1184"] On behalf of hunters I have to agree with you. I am a hunter. I have seen a lot of the things you are talking about. I see much more of the good things hunters do. They just don't make the news. I was hunting once in Crested Butte Co. I had hiked up a very steep hill. I dring a Dr. Pepper and placed the can in a wedge in a rock. I had hunted there lots of times and that rock was a nice place to take a break. Anyway after hunting all day I went back by the rock to pick up the can to carry out. Someone else had already taken it out. That said a lot for the hunters in that area. I also have tracked a wounded elk across posted land. We got permission from the land owner. We offered him some of the elk and he was amazed that we would even stop to ask him before crossing his property. He didn't take any of the elk but invited us to hunt his place the next year. I hunt some private land in other states as well. I have found if you treat the land as you would treat your own most of them are happy. Once I stopped the truck to walk a few miles. The landowner was impressed that I stopped there. I told him I didn't want to cut a rut in the washout. He said he had never had anyone do that before. On the other hand I don't let but a select few hunt on my place either. I once had 4 hunters with 8 dogs kill ever bird in a covey. I sent them packing. We also have folks shoot deer at night. Its the bottom 2% that gives us 98% a bad name. [/QUOTE]
