Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire No deer hunting this year/ death of a hunting camp.

Wife and I just completed a 8day elk camp. In a tent designed for the everglades I suspect. Highest temps were 22 degrees. No not water. I've on the tent walls every morning. Between us we have lived 130 years. Grow a set

Good on you deerstalker.

Keeps the blood flowing I say.

Armednfree,

Don't let us get to you too badly. We're just a buncha a-holes that like to pick on others.

For someone used to it as you are, your situation would suck. 10gaugemag has it right, for those that hunt in those conditions there's no way to insure your hunting other than purchasing your own land or getting an unbreakable lease that lasts the rest of your life.

But don't let your situation this year stop you from hunting, go find somewhere else to go. Go even if you have to drive out to the spot every morning and go home every night. Take advantage of the Wayne, even if it's not exactly to your liking. It's better than not hunting at all. Even if you don't see anything, it's got to be better than moping around.

You all miss the point. It's not the hunting, that's just a reason to go, it's the guys and the place. The tradition, the ending of 19 years of that.

Frankly if I do or don't ever kill another deer again it doesn't bother me. Sitting around talking to the guys, eating fantastic dinners together, playing cards, slamming a few shots, that's what I'm talking about.
