Things I notice about todays deer hunters.

[uncle buck]

I did not see any hunters walking or stalking in the woods today...They all walked down the road that cut through the PGL, smoked, talked, laughed etc etc etc.

This morning when  I pulled into the parking lot at the particular PGL's.  The place was full......At 1:00 PM  I decided try another good productive spot I hunt in the other direction of my car.... I decided to drop my rain gear and such off prior to diverting to the new stand.  When I got to the parking lot...The Foxmobile was the only vehicle in the PGL parking lot...

I like the guy that hangs his clothes outside to be scent free and then smokes a cigarette driving to the hunting spot.

I love the guys I find sitting in my tree stand on private posted property.  And them saying that it is their stand and they have permission to hunt there.  Then they look like fools when I show them I have my name stamped into the stand.

Heck never use scent free anything and i have shot many deer. Infact i shoot a deer with my bow one time and allmost burnt by bow string with a cigar. lol

Most deer hunters are ignorant people. Most are one season hunters and most only hunt 2 days and manage to cause the most destruction while doing so.

This all happened before I lost the farm I was hunting.  One incident in ten years.  The co-op I'm hunting this year, 1 destroyed hang on stand and one 2 man ladder stand stolen.

How about the guy who posts the property and don't own it. There real suprised when i show them maps on who owns it. I love doing that.

Rent A Farmer who don't own the farm but farm it for widow farmers....They tell the Widow only they can hunt deer on her land.  No one else....Figure they do give her the share of the money from the crop....However they are making money on the crop too....This be the greedy Rent A Farmer. Figures all the deer are eating his crops so he and his can kill every last one of them...Wonder what the husband of the widow would think of how his exwife is being manipulated by the Rent A Farmer.

Knew the widows husband way back to 25 years ago. He would be telling the Rent A Farmer just Where To Stick His Crops! Also To Don't Let The Cattle Gate Hit Him In the Butt On The Way Out Too!

Funny Rent A Farmer lives in a house along the road and only has 1/2 acre of his own land.

The thing I notice the most, is the inability to control the trigger finger. In a lot of areas, especially public ground there is a definate lack of deer. Not zero maybe, but pretty low. I have heard a lot of moaning from some of these people, about the PGC killing off all the deer with there policies. Yet these same people are going to shoot a doe if they see it. I'm not opposed to doe hunting but I think it should be a 3 day like it was traditionally. Shooting 5 month old deer or any deer that weighs less than 100lbs is not deer hunting. My Lab Magnum weighs 94lbs, for comparison.

I have never heard anyone call any kind of farmer gready. That takes some big ones. Farmers are lucky to be breaking even right now.

I'm sure the widow will let you rent the farm and control the hunting, just pay her more than the guy is now.

 I haven't seen a struggling farmer in years. They all live better than me and one piece of their equipment is worth more than everything I own.

[bigben]

depends on the farmer.  most are not making tons of money.  there are some though that know how to play the system that if there crop is lost that the insurance money will cover more then what the crop is worth.  so either way they make money.  

most of the farmers in my area have older pieces of equipment but most of the new ones you will find are still paying on them.  A friend has new tractors every year but his business is to go to different areas and farm.  mainly cutting corn or hay with combines.  Problem is his farthest client this year was all the way in West virginia.  had to run rt 11 all the way down in the combine.  each year he buys a new one and then sells it at the end of the season.  he makes serious coin though because not many travel more then a few miles to harvest let alone all the way to west virginia.  but he has a business and that is how he makes money.  in the end he earns that money.  he has to put the time in to get the piece of equipment down there.
