If you see another hunter stranded with the hood of his truck up and or a tire off don't even think about stopping. I mean what do you look like triple A?

 :yeah: And whatever you do, don't slow down. Not even a little bit. The most likely culprit of break downs in the mountains from too much oxygen (see previously discussed altitude sickness). What that broke down rig needs is a good cloud of dust that lasts for a minimum of half an hour to combat the excess of oxygen in it's system. When you see a vehicle in this condition, you too can help out by blowing the doors off at mach 9. Trust me, the stranded pedestrian will thank you later. Heck, I bet he even gives you a wave to show his gratitude as you blow by.

The mobile blind must be 4 wheel drive, lifted, and possess massively aggressive tires.  Do not be decieved, these items are not to be used to come to the aid of anybody that is stuck off road... whether in mud or in water.  The truth is, this is a ROAD hunting vehicle, not an OFF ROAD hunting vehicle.  The purpose for the tires, lift, and 4 wheel drive is merely to intimidate the lower class of road hunters.  Gotta pay your dues! 

There is no reason to get your mobile blind off the road for any reason at all... if you wanted to take the easy way and be an off road hunter, then you can get out of the vehicle (heresy) and walk off of the road.  If you find yourself overcome with temptation and drive your Mobile Blind off the road, walk to the nearest competent road hunter and submit to him your hunting license (you obviously don't have any business on the hunting road) and your man card (only boys succumb to such obvious tempations).

This might have already been mentioned here.

I read on another post that shutting the engine off when you stop only scares the deer or elk away. :bdid:

So when you lock up the brakes after seeing that spike, leave the Mega Cab 1 ton running as you sneak around it :hunter:

Might want to roll the window down so you don't lock yourself out of a running truck   :bash:

Be sure to shoot every sign and marker you see.   That way other road hunters know this is your territory.

The lift kits and big tires get you up higher so you can see over the stumps, slash and first year alders.

Don't shoot 5 rounds across the road up into a drainage from the tailgate of your pickup truck, it holds up traffic and the rest of the road hunters get distracted and may drive across your line of fire?!!!  :yike:

Actually witnessed this from about 800 feet above a road this season, good thing for him I wasn't close enough to get a plate #! Hopefully someone else did...  :bash:

Isn't that funny?  I wear camo outside of the woods maybe once a year at the most.  Those goofs wear their $199 camo everywhere until they're like an odor warning beacon.

What's even better is the ones who wear camo in the woods that is so washed out, you can't even tell what kind of camo it is.  They glow as much as hunter orange.

I barely have any camo, 1 long sleeve shirt, 1 short sleeve shirt and a sweater?  Oh wait and my pack but, that's it.  Seen a bunch of these guys at the new crackima cabelas standing around posing 5 vehicles taking up 10 spots and not a speck of dirt let alone dust and I come roling up a day out of the mts. covered in mud and dirt with stock wheels and new tires I had to test out.  The look on their faces was priceless, um yeah, I do get off the road and I don't need a lift or 20 in. chrome rims. :chuckle:

Dont forget one very important thing..After a few days of gettin up early & drivin all those miles and the sun comes out and you get your face all warmed up & the eyelids start bobin up & down, always park on an uphill slope because it makes for a much more effective & comfortable NAP! Especially if you have a regular cab truck & the seats dont recline!!
