No cam hunting

Interesting point if you didn't have a trail cam during the season then you would physically have to fair chase hunt in your stand to know what's on the grounds. But taking the short cut with a trail cam during the season is just that non fair chase. I enjoy hunting to watch in person what's going on the grounds. For you trail cam guys ding deer at stand 2 ding deer at stand 4. Ding deer at stand 5. Is that what your hunts are all about. Pretty sad in my estimation. Its almost become an addictive porn to some of you. Sorry to be so blunt.

I would be careful thinking the way you do it is right and the way others do it is wrong. Or that others are doing a “ding” pic so I’m gonna hunt there. I bet most here do it pretty similar and have similar ethics.

Yeah, I've got cell cams sending me pics every hour. Here's the deal though, I only have one spot to hunt, so when the wind is right, I know exactly where I am going. Nothing beats seeing deer in person. Nothing. But I just like seeing deer even when I can't go hunt. It doesn't dictate when or where I go. If that makes it sad, I am just a depressing guy I guess...

Omi I will say this. I believe we on this forum are in the upper echelons in deer management and that is a tribute.
