Very generous of you. I wish I was new to hunting and had some vacation time, I'd be all over this.
I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I'm not!

I have had a great response and have narrowed the choice down to 2 members.  I will respond to all those who have messaged me before the end of the week.

How to choose between them :dunno:

I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

Ha!! Reminds of the joke about the Cheechokoe in the Alaska Bush. His neighbor, a big burly sort of guy knocks at his cabin door one day and invites the greenhorn to a party at his place a few miles away. The greenhorns eyes light up with excitement since he hasn't had anyone to talk to in a long time and thinks it would be fun. He asks the big guy if there's gonna be some drinking going on and he says; yeah lottsa drinkin and might be some fightin and a little sex too.Then the new then the newbie asks if there's going to be girls there too and the big guys answers with; nope just you and me. :chuckle: :chuckle:

received a response from the gentleman that will be going opening weekend.  He is stoked about going, looking forward to getting together before the hunt so he and the rest of the party have a chance to meet. 

He is a longtime outdoorsman spending countless hours with his father fishing, and has recently completed his hunters ed.  Our deer camp may not be as extravagant as some others on here, but it should be a positive experience that he will remember for a long time.

Very cool and looking forward to hearing of a great experience.  Please post an update after the hunt.  There's hope for some of us humans.  :IBCOOL:

How things change, the gentleman who was to go opening weekend had a unexpected expenditure for the continuing education of his daughters  :tup: so will not be able to attend deer camp this year. Dadx6 will always be welcome in deer camp, should his schedules allow maybe he and I will try for the black tails until elk season starts.

That being said, I've extended the offer of both weekends and if he can the whole week to Cap. Silver.  We had a meet and greet this past Saturday, and am happy that he will be attending deer camp this year, and hopefully for years to come should he choose to.  My buddies and I are looking forward to hearing his stories and getting a different perspective on life and anything else we can talk about anything and everything.

hrd2fnd,

You're very kind to have extended the opportunity. Again, thank you for your consideration. I'm sorry to have had to back out. Perhaps another time.
