I don't want to get into a big bash about them, I am just wondering who here owns one and if you want to give your opinion do that too, but lets try and play nice shall we. I agree they are misused quite a bit and it seems that a lot of hunters do own at least one. I as well as many others have had a hunt or two wrecked by the dang machines being not where they are suppose to be. I admit when I have found them where they are not suppose to be, I wanted to give them a adjustment. I have never done that, and never will even though its tempting. Twice in the past I have left a letter on the seat letting people know that they were breaking the law and that I have called the fish and game. Of course I was fibbing, because both times I couldn't get cell service, but they seemed to take the hint and didn't come back with their wheelers for the rest of my hunt. Now I admit I myself do own one, and do use it when and where is legal to go from point A to point B. Most of that is in the dark and I hike from their. Its not uncommon for me to put in 10 to 14 (roundtrip) miles on my feet in a single day when bowhunting. These last two years thanks to my father in law I also have good young horse, and though I am not much of a horseman/cowboy I am learning and liking it very much. I know that is the dirrection I will be heading into the furture as I grow older. I am 31 now and can still hike just about anywhere I want. As well I can still manage to pack out elk on my back, and have done so for many years. But I admit its nice to let the horses do the hard work. I am used to packing it to where I could legealy bring in my wheeler. Enough of me being long winded lets here what you have to say. Jason
