[02BHUNTN]

WOW JUST POSTED WHAT I SAW , DELT WITH , WHO I TALKED TO AND EVEN A LAND OWNER THAT WAS FUMING IN HIS OWN DRIVE WAY ABOUT PEOPLE WHO WERE PARKED IN HIS DRIVEWAY ..........TO MANY PEOPLE THAT CANT FIGURE IT OUT OR UNDERSTAND THIS IS A FORUM NOT A PLACE TO GIVE EACH OTHER CRAP . MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOUR REPLYING TO
ON A POST BEFORE YOU REPLY. YES IM YELLING ITS ABOUT TIME PEOPLE FIGURE OUT WHY YOUR ON HERE AND WHAT YOUR MOTIVES ARE AND IF I GET ANOTHER HATE EMAIL FROM A POST "FHITS" GONING TO HIT THE FAN ON HERE JUST FAIR WARNING .
I ALSO IF EVERYONE READ THE POST I CONGRADULATED HIM ON HIS 31" BUCK , BUT THE CASE OF THE PEOPLE I RAN INTO WAS NOT MADE UP !!!!!  HOPEFULLY THEY WERE JUST PEOPLE  ; OR THEY WERE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE ELSE , THEY DID WHAT THEY DID. AND I WASNT THE ONLY ONE  . I KNOW A FREIND THAT HAD WORDS WITH THEM BECAUSE HE HAD THE SAME TAG. AND YES ONE OF THEM SAID HE WAS WITHE THE 31"  HUNTER MAYBE HE WAS JUST SAYING THAT TO BE APART OF SOMETHING GREAT. ONCE AGAIN CONGRATS TO 31" HUNTER I WILL SERIOUSLY THINK ABOUT LEAVING THIS SIGHT IN THE FUTURE IF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE THE WAY THEY ARE , VERY SAD YOU CANT ENJOY YOURSELF...........

Sorry you did not find the big one you were looking for. Souns like fun anyway! You can feel free to post a pic of your 27''er! Sounds like a hog!

The possibility of big bucks sounds nice but to me a Quality hunt doesn't have a bunch of people around me. I know it breaks your heart but I won't be applying for that hunt. Good job on sticking with your goals, no sense in killing something you wouldn't be proud of.

My late 2010 muzzy mission tag came to close . I ate the tag at my choice . Saw alot of small bucks  ; it seemed a few of the bigger bucks were low and the few that were there had people all over them watching. i passed several mid 20`s bucks . I set my goals and stuck to it . i already have 4 bucks in the 25-27 inch range a wanted somthing a little better and around 170 inches i have a archery buck that scores 171 so i set my goal and stuck to it. The only un-sportsman situtaion i ran into was some of the 15 or so guys helping the gentleman that shot the 31" buck  pulled right up were we were glassing and got out making noise throwing spoting scopes on the hood of the truck and making noise , dont know if it was on purpose or not but after talking to some of the other guys that were helping him as well i was told there were all out driving around glassing and trying to find the biggiest buck they could for him , great freinds but give some of the rest of us the chance. I figured 'Nothing Ventured Nothing Gained on passing lesser bucks . I will put in for this tag again , i also met some really nice people in wanatchee , its not if you can shoot a buck in this unit but what your willing to hold out for.

yea , seems like TEAM hunting is the new thing now . Since when does it take a team and why would you

that is really something that needs to be addressed and the last time I talked to the game dept. they were looking into a resolution to it! Sorry to hear about you not finding a hog have you posted any pics of your past bucks would really lke to see them     

[bearhunter99]

I can understand doing everything you can to try and get the best buck possible but c'mon guys?  If someone is already set up why ruin their hunt?  Every year I see some ridiculous actions in the Mission Unit.  I have had guys looking at bucks from our driveway and weren't even inclined to get the hell out of our way until I asked.  I was polite but it really burns me.  Why do people think that drawing a quality tag gives them the right to trespass and such?  Pretty damn sad some of the things that go on in my opinion.

[MuleySniper]

Yeah I am not all about the Mossback style of having 15 guys out driving around with cell phones and video cameras. You think when you draw a late tag, its you and the rest of the tag holders. I ran into just as many guys with cameras on my hunt as I did other hunters. It kind of sucks, but what can you do. Its a free country and as long as they are not hunting I don't see any possible way the game department will be able to enforce anything or make any legal changes. Nice job sticking with it and searching for your goal even though you didn't bring anything home.

Just came back from a special tag in Entiat and , while i didnt have the same problem , i saw these morons driving the roads every day . Non of them even had a tag , all lookin for somebody else. It truely is a joke to me , all this team hunting . Lots of people on here do it . O well i guess if your all about killin the biggest on the mountain you will use any means possible .

[Earshot]

here are a few that I saw during Thanks giving...but I don't have a tag.

Unfortunately it seems to be getting that way.  Meaning a lot of people trying to shoot the biggest one on the mountain and that may mean rounding up a posse to do so.  I always try and shoot the biggest one on the mountain but never do.  I just like the experience.  It would be too hard to regulate anything like this and I highly doubt WDFW will ever do anything like it.  It's taking away to much.  I just know that when i harvest that nice buck alone or with a friend it would mean a lot more and probably have a lot better story to tell than someone who shoots a 30 incher with the aid of 15 other people.  Not much fun if you ask me. 

The "quality" hunts should be just that.  Quality all around, not just the opportunity you have to harvest a quality deer but the opportunity to just have fun and have a quality hunt without tons of people out for lack of better words, "harassing" the deer. But, we as hunters have no right to argue with other outdoor enthusiasts who want to photograph or just look at deer, we aren't some sacred group that has exclusive rights to the forest. 

In summary....I agree this "group" hunting is a joke.

Who is sending hate emails? 

[02BHUNTN]

not really sure on whoe is sending them but i figure it might be some of the 31" bucks freinds but im not blaming any of them , who knows on a forum but let it keep happening and i will be chatting with some of them .......

[boneaddict]

I hesitate to remove topics.  Here is why.  I think people need to take responsibility for what they post.  Its sort of like posting bad feedback on ebay etc.   If you don't stand up and belive what you post then you shouldn't post it.  Truth will win out.  Sometimes it might have been the heat of the moment or a misunderstanding.  You are only as good as your rep on here.    Second, good members take the time to read, and often contribute to a post, such as the good folks have with this one with additional photos.  Without folks doing this then this board wouldn't be very much fun. 

Bottom line, if you start something on here figure its permanent record for all to see.

As for hate mails.   Best thing to do is hide you email I suppose.  Which some of "yours" are.   Second if there are threats coming from members via pm and you have asked them to stop and they continue, that persons membership will be shortlived on here.  We are a family and we will take care of our own.  Dad says knock it off.  KNOCK IT OFF.

[Thenewguy]

I would post the e-mails, full disclosure right?
