Not intentionally! Unfortunately, I always seem to look at situations and say "That's not too bad...." and so I keep on going until I look around and ask myself "Have you LOST YOUR MIND? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
So...like I say, not intentionally, but.....
Indy,
I used to think that I was lucky that every big game animal I've shot (not that many mind you!) has piled up within less than 50 yards of being hit. After reading your story, I realize that I've been deprived of a truly awesome experience. It was undoubtedly grueling, hard work to grind...
I have to agree with Del. Why screw with the liberties of the people who use them responsibly? If you're concerned about the buttholes who are out there, then find and HAMMER them (I'm talking confiscation of the ATV, all equipment on it, the vehicle that pulled it, etc., on top of a huge...

Lady Hunter in AZ,
Have you tried Lee's Ferry for ducks or Lake Roosevelt for ducks and geese? Both of these are great later in the season (Dec.-Jan.). You'll need a boat and a dog REALLY helps (although not strictly necessary). I hunt both of these areas and have great success. I typically...
