Free: Contests & Raffles.
I'm in the same boat. I've hunted with a few guys and family members but they're not the class of hunters that I want to go with. I'd like to find a fit, attractive, blond female, age 21-34 who has private land to hunt. I'd really like it if she has an interesting accent too. Like maybe a southern accent. An English or Australian accent would be fine too. Ideally, all parts of the land would be accessible by vehicle so she can haul my animals out and pick me up at the end of each day. If she can't get her truck to every part of the property, she can substitute a 4-wheeler. The land should also border a stream that has a solid runs of fish. I need easy limits of silvers and steelhead. Oh, I almost forgot. She needs to know how to smoke fish and cure eggs. She should enjoy cooking too because hunting makes me hungry. Knowing how to butcher my animals is a must. She can borrow a couple of my knives if needed, but they better be sharp when I get them back!The dwelling on the property will need to have wood heat. I really like wood heat. Pellet stoves or open fireplaces are unacceptable. It needs a wood stove burning old growth fir. She should also have some kind of connections in the beer industry that provides her (and therefore me) with free beer. I'm easy to please, so the big domestics like Bud and Coors are fine.
LMAO....I forgot I started this thread Lots of entertaining replys..thanks for the laughs. However, my hunting party seems to be on again for this season. At least for now until the wives pull the purse strings shut again on them. The reason I was looking for some good private land is because last year was a bust, and the year before that some group of hunters were ringing off shots back and forth to signal location if you cann believe that. Seems like everytime I scout a new area that seems productive, no matter how far out, I run into a pumpkin patch.
Change your method, put the modern gun in the rack. I did and I will never go back for elk hunting.
