How Many want "master Hunters" Out of North Bend, Snoq

[Blackjaw]

What is the definition of Anecdotal?

[kirkl]

If I dont have a horse can I still join the Posse?

[h20hunter]

You can. I once heard from my friend that knew a farmer in Iowa that quads can also be used to herd elk onto private land. However, BYOT still stands.

[Bob33]

You've got to hand it to the elk - they're smart enough to go only where the gangs of Master Hunters can shoot them.

[kirkl]

I have a quad so Im set. I love driving all over state and dnr land to herd elk. They always let us master hunters do that type of stuff.

[WSU]

You do not need a quad or horse.  As a master hunter, I have hazed ("herded") elk on foot.  I have to admit that I must be a bad master hunter.  The elk usually do what they want and do not go where I try to shoo them.

Hey...sometimes MH gangs  even get a department helo to herd elk....its a BLACK HELICOPTER TOO!

[stevemiller]

What are the gang colors for these MH gangs,Ill keep an eye out for them.  Seriously though I dont know you but I am getting the idea that you might not be a hunter.Like you nothing you say to me will change my mind,There are bad people in all user groups even anti hunting groups  . So for you to put all MH'S in one bag so to say is no diff. than antis from all groups doing the same.

They shirley have to be camo colors. Although pink is THE color of choice. Does it have to be a 4x4 quad?

Camo.  Mossy Oak Real Tree to be exact.  It lets us sneak up on the elks to more effectively shoo them and can be had at Cabela's.

You can use a 2 wheel drive quad but if you get stuck your on your own you might need to run away from the anti MH's so dont get stuck

Really people! If you don't know how NB elk react and move you have no right to be talking smack about pressuring them onto private land! It is a fact and you making jokes about it just makes you look even more ignorant. You obviously know nothing about the elk in NB or you would not be saying that stuff. Anyone who is local knows the elk habits and knows what I'm talking about! Oh need an example to back up what I'm saying? How about the fact that the elk are balled up before the early archery season even opens! Before the MH came to town they would t be balled up till mid October early November. You guys have said nothing about the positive things you do or how you help out our tradition of hunting? This poll is about "master Hunters" in north bend and if you know nothing about our town you have no business talking smack about random nothing's! Thanks:)

"Stop calling me Shirley"

Sorry...had to...

You know...I have been around the NB area on and off for over 25 years, hunted all around there and seen the valley fill out with townies who dont understand that they are moving OUT OF TOWN...  That will OF COURSE lead to conflict with the elk, especially as folks plant tasty smorgasboard hedges, yummy orchards and dessert plantings around their McMansions and golf courses.

What I have NOT seen is what you describe.  I have been involved with the repair of the elk fences, involved with the Upper Valley group, worked with Hancock and a host of other things involving elk and habitat and conflict.  Yeah I've even HUNTED in the Valley.  Heck, I'm even one of your MH boogy-men.  Folks who HAVE hunted as MH down there have posted on the process for MH to be used to move elk off of problem areas.

The more you talk and holler, the more it sounds like you are a jilted local who lost his private honey hole...

Actually, I DO know how elk in NB react. You arent doing anything positie to help your cause here. You really think the Elk are balled up? What is the herd count?? Do you know where the others are going? I do. Do you know what the agenda is of our group? I do. If you did, then you would attend meetings to make a change. None of our logical questions posted to you about whether or not you are actually doing something productive to fix this "problem", have been answered, only "I have seen." Do you know what the other requirments are for the MH? Why is it that you arent answering these questions? What about the native americans and how they affect the elk herd? Do they shoo the elk too?
