Colorado Filming Permit Denied

Pretty sure this is him.
I wondered if this is the "ranch" in question

 
I’d bet a serious amount of cash that Eichler isn’t sneaking around on hunting forums trying to book hunts on a fake profile. I’ve only met him for a few minutes in person but he is a way more stand up guy than that.

Never said duping, but selling. 85 isn't exactly a unit you just hike into. Especially with those that control the private access.

Randy's showcasing of DIY public land was my point.
 
Wow. Old thread but just goes to show that the corruption has no bounds. And has been going on to a LONG time. Just disgusting.
 
Depends who you ask.

Plenty of people, including ones here, could easily be duped into it under the guise of "providing incentive."
Iirc, this was one of the first threads I found on here. And it still makes me cringe.

I’ve hunted RFW a few times for turkeys and once for deer (same group of ranches in the SE corner). Had nothing but excellent treatment and experiences. Some of the operators (that one in particular) are doing really good things for wildlife - more than a couple are not.

I also used to hunt every year very near one mentioned in this thread. Run into their staff on occasion. All good folks.

But I would vote to kill RFW in a heartbeat (and I am old and live in hotels most of the week, so my heart rate is faster than ol’ Wllm on a mogul run). At 1:1 public-to-private ratios as initially proposed? OK (but still wouldn’t vote for it). At current ratios and more or less being incentivized towards bad behavior? It’s horrible.

Randy - Get some organizations behind you and go hunting despite the fact, maybe minus the cameras? The fellas who did the corner crossing in Wyoming were trend setters, you could be too!
