Yes I am
At least deer hunting during gun season on public lands.
I took Vipe along this morning to hook up with coworker(Xbow) and his brother 80 miles away on public land. We get there over an hour before legal shooting time and we get into the woods. As we were leaving our vehicles a truck pulls in the same area we parked at. We go in and set up on a ridge overlooking a bottom. I am 50 yards away from Vipe (I wanted to keep a eye out for her) Well 5 minutes before legal shooting time the 3 assholes from the truck come walking in. One starts walking in to where Vipe is set up. Another one comes right to where I am at and starts coming in. I shined a light on him with my flashlight to stop him and he backs out. The guy walking in on Vipe finally backs out from where she is. Well after much racket this is how they set up knowing exactly our locations. One was 30 yards to Vipes right. One sets up 30 feet behind me at top of ridge and the other is 33 steps to my left(I paced em off before I left)
They made much noise and more while we was there. Finally after awhile Vipe signaled to me if she could go to Jeep. So she heads back to Jeep.
I kept thinking on many things . How unsportsmanlike they were and etc. Thought about doing many things also
Like standing 3 feet from them,firng off a few shells,making even more racket they did. But being there with others that I didnt want to mess up their day in the woods I left saying aloud "Fuggin Losers".
It is public land and they had every right to be there same as I. If I did anything I would be the one punished.
So we ended up driving around the area just to see what was happening. Ended up catching a father and 2 teens loading a big doe in truck. Stopped and talke with them. The teen girl killed the doe. It was her first also
She told us how it happened with alot of excitement in her voice. A quote from her" I blew its brains out". She said that with a BIG grin also
So that was the bright spot of the day's hunt for us.
