Not to pile on but I'm going to.  cwebsterdeerhunter, If you go here:

You'll see your post history.  16 posts and 10 of them are "help me find a spot".  In one post you say you've been hunting elk 20 years.  In another you say you've been hunting elk 40 years.  Either way, if you've spent that much time in the woods and can't find animals, there's something wrong.  Many people (probably with less time to scout that you have) have spent a fraction of that time in the woods and get in the middle of animals every year. 

I'm not saying I haven't received my share of charity here.  I can say that I have received more than I have been able to give but, I do give when I can.  The group of people here will bend over backwards to help someone out who has shown the gumption to get out there and help themselves first or have passed on knowledge and knowhow to others but, hardly anyone here is going to give out info to a guy who has 2/3 of his posts asking for a handout.  Just go to the political forum on here and you'll see that this place is full of guys who hate welfare.

Good luck in your 2012 season.

 ... Yikes! Until doublej pointed that out I hadn't realized just how many feelers you had out there for handouts... when you delve through the sarcasm or inside jokes, you will find the best advice you will get is this: get out and explore. If you want quality information you generally have to pay for it; try working with an outfitter. Otherwise, I suggest some time wearing out the tread on a pair of boots.

Don't listen to Hirshey. Everyone knows girls can't hunt like men when it comes to big game.























ps. I've seen the pics. I am 100% clear that it appears that Hirshey is indeed a girl, can 100% out hunt, hike, and just about everything else better than me.

no idea when people say places are crowded... yeah the roads! I rarely see hunters when I am out of the rig ever! Hell I drove up thru NE WA last season on the second weekend of general deer and places were deserted

That is fortunate... there is a piece of property my family has been hunting on for 20+ years that we saw 18 folks on last season.... it is private property but more people keep bringing friends without asking the property owner and now there are yahoos running around all over the place thinking it is public land. The owner expressly does not want a soul driving on the land, either, and the last two seasons there have been 4-wheelers and trucks in both directions from the homestead. Pretty sad when you have to go from hunting to policing people that should have taken the time to understand the landowner's wishes. We have definitely seen an increase in people across the board in our hunting areas... private and public; that's part of the reason I started investing so much time into the high hunt and areas that are at least a day's trek from the road systems. I figured if you are able-bodied that is the best way to ensure a little piece of real estate to yourself.

I feel for property owners. In 2010 I took my father on an outfitted hunt. Every trip out, morning and evening, we had to run people off. I will admit......bouncing through the sage in a big 'ol dulie with a true ta-backy spittin' cowboy reading to chew some arse is kinda fun.

Oren.......you know who I'm talking about!!!!

  he's probably a lot more intimidating than a 5'6'' doe-eyed lass, too.

He is and I'll even spell it out.

Todd Jensen......Orens (of Tanglewood Guides) brother is who guided us. He lives up by Spokane is quite the guy. Nice as can be, family man, quick with a smile, and seems happiest when he is playing roping games with his little girl. We were out hunting and see some jokers that had to literally trip over the no trespassing signs to be walking where they were. Todd smiles and says hang on guys...we're gonna have some fun with these guys. We go boucing along and pull up to the pumpkins, come to a stop in a cloud of dust and he pops out. He stands about 6'4, gets that chest puffed out and gets after them. My pops and I are just hanging back....staying out of the way. Of course the guys had no excuse and muttered this and that.....then got the hell out of there.

I was amazed at how many people ignored the obvious signs.

Yeah, it is sad how many people are willing to be dishonest; there is a lot of public land to be had to yourself if you put the time and effort into finding it.
