I have hunted WA, British Columbia, Oregon, and Montana.

It is all terrible in every state on public land.... until I hand over hundreds of dollars to a rancher and I am the first to hunt. Big bucks for big bucks.

I have handed over hundreds of dollars, been the third to hunt, and got as skunked as I do on public land.

There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. -Ernest Hemingway
The man who makes no mistakes does not usually make anything.-- Edward John Phelps
