Just a couple minor misconceptions on bad hunters. Most hunters are good, but the bad ones draw no lines on how bad they will be. One year three of us filled elk tags without firing a shot. Two guys running through a small herd shooting from their hips left them laying with no intent to return. Two cows, which a couple of people in our group had tags for just laying out in the clearing. The bad guys obviously had no special permits. Also one two point, legal on any tag, in the trees. I guess it wasn't big enough for them. If the regulation says 3 point, that doesn't mean don't shoot it, just don't take it home or through a check point. Also, they shot at two of our party because they heard rustling in the bushes. We all wear full blaze orange. I have been shot at twice since. I had to quit hunting, because I know that the next time it happens I will be locked up. I will shoot back and I never miss.

Do NOT make noise. Make yourself seen.
