I know its the internet and you can never really know what some rando is gonna do.

It should be common knowledge and practice - if someone tells you any info or gives you a spot its not your spot to share unless whoever shared it specifically told you that it was alright.

Further, if someone shares a pin(in this case, for bear) then that's what you go there to hunt. You don't show up and say "oh man there's some deer/elk here I'm gonna hunt those too" without express permission.

Finally, it would probably be in good taste to verify that whoever shared it isn't gonna be in the area if its another season going on.

Essentially, if someone is graciously giving you a leg up, you don't shit in their face on the way up.

THIS ^

Even my good friends I’ll double check with on spots, also ask permission to share stuff and respect if they have a target animal in the area.

Most guys with spots and intake will respect the fact you’re courteous and considerate of this, and it will benefit you more in the long run.

Didn’t realize one side was so much taller, that’s kind of cool!

Wow that guy has some wise and ancient look on him. I guess not wise enough for you! From lighting in the pics I'd guess this also wasnt very first or very last light either

Thats impossible. Everybody knows you can only kill animals at first or last light

“Somewhere in Washington”. LOL. It took seconds to figure out where they were.

Making content doesn’t necessarily contribute to the betterment of the world. For the high hunt, commercialization pressure is a net loss, no question.

I agree . They have made some poor choices

Like posting the video of a headshot on a bear cub all over every FB hunting page a few years back?

Like posting OnX screenshots of some of the best areas in WA and claiming they're just random examples?

That posse is what's wrong with hunting these days.

Without completely derailing this thread and turning it into a high school drama fest, some more discretion on who people look up to in the hunting world would benefit a lot of fellas.

So about my mountain nap time

 

[Fork N Horn]

Cause Washington state makes rules and laws that make little to no sense at all

Same with California. I feel your pain.

Making content

It’s always ego when you boil it down.

Of course the knee jerk response is “but… I like to share my stories and adventures” so share them with your friends and family. Why does the opinion of strangers on the internet you’ve never met matter to you? Ah, see, there it is… ego boost.
