I don’t know Shockey personally. I have clients that have had business dealings with him and were fine dealing with him.
Also have clients in the industry and have a pretty good idea what they are going through
I see some of his point.
Having said that I feel/think it is incumbent on the outfitter to roll the commitment forward . Or refund the $ if you can’t make a reasonable attempt to provide the Hunt - not necessarily in 2021 , but 2021 or 22 . Obviously some juggling involved because most are , or were , booked 2-3 years out.
So to accommodate someone who was supposed to hunt in 2020 in 2021 or 2022 you have to move someone else. They have to be aware of this and try to be reasonable as well.
Letter of law ? Probably don’t have to roll forward. Still I think it is reasonable.
Lot of self justification in the article
