You alone have spoiled hunting in GMU 382 for those of us who have hunted there for many years. Your horror stories in the last few years of Deer hair loss in Yakima , the decline of the population and your continued attempt to tell people where anamals are, has turned hunting in the Bickleton area into a sea of Orange and in some cases a shooting gallery. There are those of us that spend the time, effort and money to hunt as traditional hunters did by scouting and doing our homework. You write your stories without reguard to others in and attempt to sell newspapers. You and you alone are the reason that many of my freinds and I do not subscribe to or read the Yakima Paper anymore!
Stating facts is good and I believe the people like that, but leave the work to the individual sportsman. That is a part of hunting isn’t it? If it were not and were as easy as reading a paper and getting the gun it would be called Deer, Elk, Bear and bird Killing VS. Hunting. Same goes with fishing, It would be called catching. Research and preparation are a big part as you are so fond of stating in your own experiences.
