RE: Mountain Food Plots?
You guy's make me laugh ! I love how you all act like you are above hunting over a food plots.What do you think some of these guy's have been killing these big bucks and bull's around hay field's or waterholes or salt lick's have been doing for for years?On the other hand I have also seen hunter's go home emty handed waiting for animal's to come in or hunt over field's and water aswell ( I have been one of those hunter's).I didn't say I wanted put up a 10 foot fence on 2 acres of land and herd them into a corner were I will get a 10 yard shot. I am talking about 40 acres fenced by barb wire adjacent to 2 large private land owner's that manage there game for trophy class animals, and trying to find away to get the local game to pass through this property aswell. what would you call hunting over a water hole? Or hunting one of your honey hole's thaat the animal's like to feed at?If we are gonna talk ethic's let's get rid of everything Atv's,high power optics,late season tag's,high caliber rifles that shoot amazing distances,compound bow's,inline muzzleloader's,Late season hunt's early season hunt's, Rut hunt's,Camo clothing,( I have all these) hunting dog's also'I mean I could go on and on.
I MEAN LET'S BE HONEST IF WE ARENT LOOKING FOR ADVANTAGES TO HARVEST ANIMAL's BETTER, EASIER,MORE OFTEN, THEN WHY DOES EVERYONE WANT TO HUNT LIMITED ENTRY HUNT'S OR PRIVATE LAND? OR WHY IS CABELA'S AND SPORTAMAN'S MULTIMILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES?I mean you act the animal cannot escape or don't have a choice in entering this property.Or as if I tied it to a tree.
I have taken animal's ( and my share of trophy's ) every way from spike camp in freezing temp's to road hunting in a comfortable truck on a limited or privite area,everything except high fence,I hunt as hard and am as knowledgable about hunting mule deer and elk as anyone on this site ( o.k maybe not everyone but most)I dont think sitting in a tree outside a field waiting for a trophy whitetail to come walking in november is easy either I have done it and yes I went home emty that after a week of doing it in freezing weather. Hunting is hunting and yes I was just looking for a way to increase my odd's and thought it would be cool se more game that's all, thanks for all your comment's though as usual they are very intertaining to say the least.
Honestly I believe it all boil's down to envy and greed, and as said earlier the Anti-hunter's love when we fight among ourselves it will make us easier to take down that way. Thank's again for all your post's I haven't found anything that will work on this property yet but believe me I'll keep trying.
