Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Bowhunting How much would you pay for pre-season drone scouting ??

sure as sunrise in the morning, so WHY the need for a drone. Just sit on the "familiar trails" and shoot one. Doesn't take a rocket scientist, or an idiot with a drone, to pattern a whitetail.

Boots and Alpha glass, that's what I spend my money on for scouting.

Ooh tough guy talk.. well at least your not going to beat him in front of his kids. Like you are prone to doing sometimes..

I would like to use your services.

Do you travel?

I have a hunt coming up in North Korea.

I'll pay your ticket there.

Thx

I'd help pay for the ticket!!

Another classic example of "technology will replace the need for skill & knowledge."

What a phu..ing loser!

Well his plan won’t work in several states cause they have banned there use..

Nada

I'd report you for asking...

Had an issue with a neighbor and a drone...glad I live in wild and wonderful WV!

Particularly like these:

(1) To take photographs or other types of images of another person without the other person’s permission where the person being photographed or whose image is being captured has a reasonable expectation of privacy.

(c) Any person who operates an unmanned aircraft system under the influence of alcohol, controlled substances or drugs is guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, shall be confined in jail for not less than twenty-four hours nor more than one year, fined not less than $100 or more than $5,000, or both fined and confined.

Almost always a beer involved...

And then we have this one:

(5) Use a drone or other unmanned aircraft to hunt, take or kill a wild bird or wild animal, or to use a drone or other unmanned aircraft to drive or herd any wild bird or wild animal for the purposes of hunting, trapping or killing;

Guessing there is a fine line between driving/Herding and "scouting" but I guess you have burden of proof...
