Bowshooter, could be it was a self guided hunt on property owned by Sherman Creek, a drop camp type situation.  Then they would both be right don't you think?

Yeah, I guess.  But the way the guy described the hunt, it didn't sound like it.  Maybe they can explain it better...  It is just one deer and one elk, so they may have a good reason?   :dunno:

That's one heck of a nice whitetail, tell your friend congrats!!  I hunted a couple of years in Northern Alberta, saw 16 bears in 6 days of hunting one and have taken four nice bears with my bow up there.  After the first year I no longer considered the Outfitter my Outfitter but my friend so I know exactly where your coming from.  Great looking site and excellent trail cam photos!

Sounds like your bluff got called Bowshooter.  Think you jumped the gun a bit?

Outfitter, its about time you got back to posting on here, I have missed your experience. Thats one hell of a buck right there, congrats to the hunter that got him.

You need to post more and not worry about the jokers on the site, there are a load of us that love your posts. Thanks again for your insight and posts...............................rf
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

It sounds like he didn't actually guide him on this hunt, but helped him out from time to time, so they thought it appropriate to show this buck on their site as if he was on one of their guided hunts.   :bdid:   

I guess I am kind of biased.  I had a friend e-mail sherman creek about a year ago about a hunt.  They took almost two weeks to get back to him and left him a one sentence message stating they were full.

Bowshooter, it wasn't even you it was your friend.  He, like me, probably didn't get back to the guy because we are busy as hell working hard for our current clients. 

Just remember this guy has a business.  When you open your mouth you can hurt a guy's livelihood.  If you have issues with him or his pictures then private message the guy.  I wouldn't want my dirty laundry posted around on the internet.  That's what makes this site so good as we pride ourselves on not having this garbage on Huntwa.  Just give the guy a bit of respect.  It's not like he kicked your dog or something.  He delayed in sending your friend an email.  That's got you all bent?  I've done it before.  Do you want to get bent on me too?

I don't want to feel like I'm having to defend a guy, but it just seems really odd and struck me wrong that you are pushing this.  Let's let it end.

Lastly, your thread got jacked, sorry John.
