I HATE WASHINGTON!

[Mongo Hunter]

So I get another chance to do some hunting this weekend, its probly my last chance till late season. So I hike my sorry butt to the bottom of this creek bed and find a great spot. then a gun shot...and another...and another...and another. 12 SHOTS LATER they switch to a PISTOL! BUNCH OF POLO SHIRT YUPPIE JERKS TRYING TO BE 50 CENT! GOD I HATE HUNTING WASHINGTON!

Sorry for the rant but some people just don't have even the slightest common courtesy any more. I may give it another go late buck but this may have done it for me. and another thought, where were they shooting all those rounds into? hopefully they had a backstop and just weren't lobbing rounds into the woods!

Don't let that stop you. People are shooting and having fun. Hunting muzzle loader I hear rifle guys sighting in their guns all the time. Yes it can ruin the peace we are seeking but I wouldn't go as far as hating this great state because of that. Maybe the rain but not the shooting. haha

   I have neighbors that have no business living in the woods and have no concept of hunting seasons.
The animals are used to the shooting and return as if nothing happened. Don't let other people ruin your good time.

Public land is for the public not just for hunters. Hell I hate this state for better reasons than someone else enjoying the out of doors. The seasons here have sucked for so long I get hickies every time hunting season comes around

I have killed bucks during rifle season on a farm 200 yards from where tye farmer and his family areactively trap shooting. Just have to deal with it and adapt.

Mongo, that's the sound of 2nd Amendment rights being exercised. Revel in it!

Less worried about the deer, more worried about me catching a bullet in the butt from people just blasting away. Hunters orange only works so good.

  the deer learn to adapt.  Deer don't spook from random shots through the woods, they can't afford to. 

Just get over a hill and you'll be safe from their shooting

Public land I assume?? Not sure what you've got to complain about. Get further away from the roads maybe so as to avoid the folks that stay close to said roads for the purpose of target shooting, camping, throwing stones, etc. Not sure why the state of washington is being blamed for this.

Yep, plenty of other reasons to hate Washington.

It could be worse.

Deer don't get spooked by gunshots as easily as people think.....I shot at a buck on sat and on my way down to look there was 3 more bucks with several does standing close by and didn't run till I got close

[Mongo Hunter]

Trust me I know the 2nd amendment well and use it often. however I also have respect for other peoples rights and activity's. I never go target shooting in the woods during hunting season, ill go to a range instead if I have to. I get all my sighting in and plinking done during the off season out of respect for others. That's what seems to be lost, those people had a RIGHT to shoot in the woods on public land, but they had no respect for the OTHERS that may be using it for something else.

[deerhunter_98520]

I understand your frustration...I would be irritated also but not everyone hunts....like you said it was some polo wearing yuppie jerks and they probably had no clue it was hunting season

[Houndhunter]

Move to another state
