interesting hunting technique

[krazy]

Out for a look see this morning and came across these fellows taking road hunting to a new level. Not wanting to cramp their style we got the hell out of Dodge - time to find a new area me thinks.

LMAO.
Well you can tell he means serious business since hes holding a rifle and not beer.

[Doe Eyes]

Perhaps his beer is in his other hand...

Thats funny you mention this as I was watching "The Camp" this morning it was showing the guys from "Buck Expert" driving around with a guy in the back box of the PU, looking for moose, while the other guide drove and the clients sat in the cab. It looked unethical and unsafe to me, but it was back east, so who knows. I was laughing while watching this because along with the idiots hunting this way, thay had some type of porn music playing in the back gound that kept repeating it self over and over again. Even the wife asked what I was watching, because she thought it was NOT hunting:eek::shock::tongue::mrgreen:

Any bets on whether or not that was a loaded rifle ? ;)

[huntwriter]

Can’t shoot a deer from inside the truck. With this tactic all the guy has to do is jump off and shoot if a deer is spotted. At least that is what I was told last week by a hunter sitting on the roof while another was driving the car along the logging roads. I initially asked the guy if he was not scared of falling off the car roof.

He told me proudly that he had fallen off of the car roof a few times when it got “bouncy” and that at one time the car run over his legs too. Stupidity seems to know no borders.:smile:

[Dragginbait]

He has to stay outside because his banjo case is on the front seat.

[tufferthandug]

That's where I would put my hunting partner if he had beans and cabbage the night before..

[cndnmike]

Maybe he just had too much "Deer camp chilli" the night before. I know in the same position I'd make him ride out there to...

[cndnmike]

Dang - tuffer - you're quicker on the keys than me it seems!

[PGK]

Looks like bartell's truck.....and wasnt gatehouse wearing an orange ski mask?

[todbartell]

License plate reads "FT KILLA"

Takes all kinds.

I Guess The Gun Was Loaded ,that Would Be My Guess ,sure Are Some Crazy Hunters Out There.

[ElkMasterC]

Maybe the locks were frozen in the morning, and buddy was trying to pee on them as a de-icer. Stood up on the bumper, and got 'er riled up, as it were.
Mis-judged the distance, as there's probably not a lot to play with in the first place (pun intended), and got Ole Wet Willy stuck to the lock.
Deciding to make a go of 'er anyway, as they have to be back at the license plate factory Sunday night at dusk, they handed him a gun and a beer , and went to it.
Hands-free hunting.

I bet this exactly what happened.....Happens alllll the time to me. :wink:

There may be some Crazy Hunters out there, but I have a hard time calling these guys hunters!!

[abbyfireguy]

I just about made my son ride the truck like that yesterday on the way home from Vanderhoof.He must have had something crawl up his a$$ and die from the smells I had to endure.I even threatened to forceably trade him places with the moose in the back of the truck.
Might have been my curried chicken the last night in camp too...:razz:
He ate enough for two...

[Ron.C]

I saw a similar thing in 4-25 "Kootenay River FSR" with two guys standing in a the bed of A RED chevy pickup guns resting on the truck cab one looking at either side. The Scary thing is they never so much as flinched when they saw me. Makes you realize just how pathetic they really are when they have to cheat while road hunting!!!!

[mikey]

hey ron, i've seen the same thing here in shawnigan division, make's you wonder how they ever passed their core exam... if they even bother taking it.

[Ron.C]

The core education is just a formality for the kind of idiots that do this. They don't give a shit about safety, ethics, or obviously hunter public image for that matter. What I should of done was pull out my video camera and get a plate #. My mistake

So, can you see if his gun is loaded? I can't. See any beer? I can't. Can I assume, yes. Just like me assuming last year that a guide outfitter blocked an access road for 2 miles. I didn't know for sure. The only thing this guy is guilty of here is no seatbelt. So he chooses this type of hunting, we are all entitled to do things our own way. If you don't like it go "Road hunt" somewhere else. Quit pickin on my uncle!! Moosin:wink:

[humble hunter]

not much different than hunting from a quad in my opinion.

[grumpy]

ran into the same thing in cunningham pass once a bunch of albertain`s were doing the same thing except when they got bored they would speed up fast and try to dump their partners off

[born2hunt]

wow is all i can come up with

[Dragginbait]

We went to Texada Island a few years ago, and I was walking up a road and was passed by a truck with a flatdeck on the back of it and some yahoo sitting on a kitchen chair with his gun on his lap, which put the muzzle level with my head. I was not impressed with the low caliber of some of the locals.



Other locals we met were great. Some were braindead.http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_14_4.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxpt425YYCA)

How so???? You don't see many quad drivers with a rifle in hand while riding. This is just plain stupidity and not a practise any one would condone that also call themself a hunter.

[humble hunter]

Just my opinion, lots of guys driving around on their quads into places they shouldn't with loaded weapons. I don't see the difference in getting off your truck or your quad.

[mrdoog]

I've lots of people sitting in the Queen's seat or backwards on the rear rack, holding a rifle across their lap. Not much difference.

Yast Year I came across a guide in 6-04 driveing clients around in this manner. Not professional imho.
