" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

 Interesting for sure, there is another member on here that we caught taking a deer off my lease in SE Montana a few years ago, the locals are always complaining about all the Washington hunters roaming around over there.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

I can't believe it has taken this long for people to catch wind of this.

Good grief!  Nice example to set.

I just came in from setting up a chain to block access to our place SE of Twisp.  Already kicked two off that had driven by 2 sets of "Private Property" signs.
I feel better about my time spent doing that now...

:yeah: Love going back there to see family and hear all the story about Washingtonians. Here more about them than Californians. And yes they are all legitimate issues!  :bash:

Just goes to show you that you can't trust anybody these days! Wanting all the glory is more important than doing the right thing apparently!  :DOH:

According to this article the fine and hunting privileges are worse.

What a disappointment.
