On my Lease starting this year...
Seems the Hot Shot young Bucks were placing Internet Cams on all the biggest , Fresher trails and sitting around the Camp at night watching Live action.
Come dawn their were 10 dogs running the hottest trails.
Old timers didn't like that much so Bamm...no more cams.
I hunt the Still Hunt areas so I just painted over my Club numbers on my Cams and put them out anyways.
I only run maybe 2 on the Club anyways..

Lots of that going on.
Someone gets a big one using cam and now we gotta ban cams to stop folks from getting nice bucks.
People are azzes.

A spread out daisy chain of trucks at 5 am. Laying down fresh tire tracks for the next guy to check.
Hot coffee, a honeybun and chatting on the radio. Watching the sun wake up at 3mph in 4low. That’s a big part of what I miss anyway.
Maybe those old timers aren’t as pissed off, as they are encouraging this generation to get their heads out of their ass( and phone)?

We used a piece of chain link to drag the roads. A lot of the roads have been lime rocked and tracks can’t be seen. Technology has evolved.

I’m happy that some “young buck” is still running dogs. Can’t blame them for using the latest technology.
I don’t have anything against trailcams but, all the simpler things that get lost along the way. I recon I’m just old.

Time and the hunt has certainly evolved. However, a campfire still warms and stirs our souls same as when I was a youngster listening to dad and the other hunters. Once the folks are in camp, the dogs fed and watered or our stand hunters back in, the night, camp dinner, laughter, sparks rising upwards, time kinda reverses and we’re all kindred. I hope it lasts and lasts for the young bloods.

Not a fan of these “cell or live action” cameras and I wish they would ban them on public land. I used to build trail cameras before there were any commercial choices on the market. Nothing more exciting than have to pull the film roll out and wait an hour to see what was roaming the woods. |

I'm on the 2nd largest Dog Hunt Club in the Country..Right across the Highway is the # 1 .
I'm not a Dog hunter but most of the folks round here sure are.
I really enjoy all the kids and wife's hunting with their Dads.
It'd be a shame to see this Tradition gone...and like I said., I'm a still Hunter.
Let slip the dogs boys..He's a good un in that swamp..Bust him out.

Im sure some got upset when those older guys started using CB radios to communicate about the hunt. Technology evolves. Evolve or die.....

Wish folks could just mind their own business. Too worried about what everyone else is doing.

Did they vote on it, or was it an executive action?
