Free: Contests & Raffles.
Now why I hate some rifle hunters, opening morning first ones out. Park and slowely start walking up a fenceline that goes out to a tall butte. 4 guys pull in right behind us and walk as fast as they can right behind us and dollow us all the way to the butte then walk through the draw right below the butte pushing all the deer out and sit less than 200 yards from us. In my experiences rifle hunting is rifle hunters are inconsiderate Aholes. Sorry for the rant but sure pisses a guy off.
Nice bucks! What baffles me is the fact that you claim you were around a bunch of ignorant a-holes, and you're carrying a deer out on a pack that isn't marked, or flagged! Don't you think it would have been wise to put on some orange! When you pop over a ridge, what is the first thing someone watching from afar is going to see? Obviously the head of the deer, and by that time you're dead! Not to say in a million years I would ever do something like that, but there are a lot of morons out there. I don't think any more/less of the morons are rifle hunters though!
Congrats to the kids..What kind of pack?There are aholes in everything thing we do, not just gun hunters
I hate "hunters" like that, no matter what season it is there are plenty of a holes to go around. Great bucks for the kids.

I barely rifle hunt and have chit happen like that all the time when I do pick a rifle up..hell this past weekend we had some tool walk up on us after admitting seeing us down there from the road but yet still comes up behind us!! WTF did u not get dude? then blows our hunt and spooks the deer off...just dont get it...I have had 1 bad incident in 17 years of bowhunting with another hunter and thats what I mostly do! rifle guys are another breed

"Soo ur saying im not smart cause I didnt have hunter orange on?? I wasnt aware it was required for somebody walking with no deer tag nor rifle??Its knowing ur surroundings and where i was and with 2 others in orange walking in front of me i felt i was more than safe."It's your life, and you make your own decisions. Technically you didn't need to wear hunters orange, but neither did the kids after the "hunt" was over! From my observation, and what you posted, I would have never put myself in that position. You can say you knew your surroundings all you want, but reality is we're never fully aware of our surroundings! This is part of the reason I dont post too much on here. Posts, and replies get taken out of context way to often. To paraphrase; I think it's comical of you to call people a-holes, and say you hate rifle hunters, when you're blatantly ignorant yourself! I'll give you credit for at least making sure the kids were safe!
