This is dumb, you pay your money and please yourself, what anyone else thinks is irrelevant. If you think the LF/HF debate gets hot, try explaining hunting over a corned sendero, to a northern hunter. You'll end up on the reciving end of the same arguments the LF people use against HF hunters. I did that one time as I has helping a guy drag a 160" deer out of alfalfa feild pretty damn funny, yankee make fun of texas boys, when he had 50 deer in a 120acre alfala pivot to choose from. He shut up after I asked him he wanted me to take his picture in a plowed feild down the road

This poor old dead horse must be a Zombie. You just can't kill it. I know of HF ranches where most that bad mouth them would get lost and probably sh*t themselves to death crying for momma before they could find their way out. Most that are bad mouthing HF were probably born on pavement and have never even hunted LF without a guide. We are certainly living in a bizarre universe when the HF guys talk smack to those that hunt fair chase. You HF shooters are the mountain men and the fair chase guys are city boys now? A few posts above the point is how easy the HF is and wondering why all the fuss about fairness? You HF apologists will say anything. That's all I can come up with. That shows you can't come up with much. Like I said before I know HF ranches if you were dumped in th middleof it with out your phone,gps or compass you would probably cry youself to death before finding your way out. Do you say these things because that is what you would do? Don't project your fears on others just because you never mastered basic woodsman skills. I get ya, you work hard all year, and you deserve to be driven to a nice, plush blind overlooking a feeder at exactly 100 yards while the "guide" goes to the pen to release your pre-paid, half-starved deer 400 yards away and out of sight. It makes a beeline to the feeder that just went off, you shoot a trophy, then go back and tell your wife and kids what a great hunter you are. That's funny, I don't get out of truck in okla or kansas until its time to shoot, and there isn't a feeder any were for 100+ miles.

I am glad you found the humor in it BOBO. I grew up hunting in Michigan. HF, LF I don't much care, but I find it hard to believe anyone could get lost in a fenced in area, high or low, as Don K suggested.
Now when I hunted in federal lands in the UP of MI? You could walk off the wrong side of the road and never be seen again. If the hypothermia doesn't get ya, the bears, wolves, wolverines, Mtn. Lions, etc. will. I guess you learn things out of necessity.

The black flies are pretty serious up north but thankfully by deer season all bugs are dead since it is usually about 20 degrees. Having said that, I much prefer hunting in TX.

But in all fairness its was 21k of deep east texas swamps, pines and bayous. You think your the only one on this forum that has done a DIY hunt by your self in the wilderness? Come on man.

No it just shows you talk chit to people you don't know a thing about is all. I have probably forgot more than you will ever know. Like anyone could ever know that. [/quote] Everyone's brilliant and indestructible on the internet. (Usually because it's the only place they can be.)

Hunting is hunting wether you walk 6000' and 10miles a day or drive a pick up truck and walk 30' to a blind.
You want to be grizzly adams knock yourself out, but as soon as you bash someone hunting beliefs because you look down apon it, your no longer a hunter your just a big ego trip...nothing more nothing less

I never said I was the only one BOBO, come on man. You are just trying to be difficult . It's just that I find it hard to believe you can get lost inside a fenced in enclosure. I am sure there are many more experienced hunters than I. The difference between myself and many others is that I continue to learn while others believe they know it all.

And yes, MI has wolves. The DNR says 2000 pair but it is likely closer to 10000. Mom had them in her yard 2 winters ago. Still no season for them there though, too many tree huggers. Wait until they cross the ice one winter into the LP and then you will hear the huggers scream. Each wolf eats between 12 and 20 deer each year they say.

Apparent it goes both ways I am not the one talking smack about my hunting skills so, no, it doesn't. I don't mind saying that it's my experience that the biggest talkers are not the biggest doers. This seems especially true when the talk is that HF is the tough guy way and fair chase is for city boys.

I spent most of the day wandering around and was ready to give up when the rest of my group found me. Then again, I was 6.
