sorefeet, i agree 1000% with ya, i have done most of my huntn over the years with my best friend, i just bought a walltent with the yukon stove built a shower that goes with the tent, bought this sweet ass pantry that goes with it and now i am in the process of gettin the bunkbeds, but its funnjy cause my hutn partner says dude i am so happy you built a shower because i am tired of bathing with baby wipes, well i can tell you this if he doesnt offer to pay for food and gas this year well we wont be huntn together anymore, i have always paid for everything and we always use my truck my gas my food and i have always been ok with it and he makes better money than i do, no more though, i would rather just huntn with my son, oh and huntnw really dude, i have a feeling that your the huntn partner that doesnt offer up squat....

had a woman show up in camp with a friend of mine,she thought the whole trip and world revolved around her..brought very little and expected the rest of us to take care of her...boy did she get a big suprise...what an attention whore..We haven't let our buddy forget about her..Don't know how folks can show or go with someone and not feel they should be paying their way and doing their part in the activities...

I had a partner for 5 years, elk archery for the full week. The last ime we hunted, he hadn't seen anything for the first three days and when I got back to camp on the morning of the 4th, he was packing his chit. Done!
The next partner I had hunted for two years with me, then two weeks before the third season, tells me he's hunting another area with his wife, would I like to join them. I'd done all the scouting, several trips and a lot of miles on my feet. Done!
Last year, my new hunting bud's mother-in-law went crazy and he couldn't go. I hunted alone for 10 days. Lonely camp at night. Hopefully, he'll be ok for this year. He's an old, dear friend and says that hunting is his passion. We'll see what happens this September, although he's been dragging his feet with preparations.
It's hard when you depend on others when their commitment level is different.

I am very fortunate. I've got at least three that I can count on. We all recognize that schedules change and sometimes things fall through, but we are good at communicating that as soon as possible. I would say that I have put more effort into organizing trips than most of them, but that's only because I have that kind of time
There was one time that one of my buddies had some very last minute changes which prevented him from making the trip, but because he was responsible for dinner on one of those nights he drove more than an hour to make camp just to make us dinner and then drove home. Now that's a buddy!
