Fellow hunters, you will never get a better invitation than what krshunter gave you right here, and I applaud him for that. Not many people would be willing to add to the mass confusion of other hunters is his area.
I have been hunting for the last seven days and have run into two different groups that were having troubles with their hunts. One was a father and son who had applied for antelope. This particular area was devastated by blue tongue about ten years ago and is just now coming back. Well the G&F had left over permits and these guys grabbed two of them. They were from Wisconsin and really good guys and they asked for help, because our area is kind of checkerboarded to. So my son and I showed them what areas they could hunt and where they couldn't. To shorten my story we directed them to two bucks neither more than 13" but at least they didn't go home empty handed. The other guy was probably 56 years old hunting by himself and although a resident didn't know the area very well. The only place he knew of was a hole. A huge box canyon with trees in the bottom, three hundred foot sides with no way out but up. What's wrong with that you say? Nothing if you're young and have some help, but this guy is awaiting a liver transplant and when I say you have to put up stakes to see if he's moving, I'm not far off. So we showed him some of our spots that we hunt. The deer may not be as big, but at least he can get out and hunt it.
The point of all this is sometimes we as hunters need to help out our brothers in the sport and krshunter has just given you a prime oppurtunity and I thank him for that.
