Andy it was snowing a little at the time and I guess a snow flake fell in front of the camera when the pic was taken :rolleyes:.

[hunter1947]

your lucky to have 4
I have 5 others as well but have not done a lot of hunting with them but are excellent hunters to hunt with ,I would go out with them any time for a hunt.

[Jelvis]

Wayne, your still the tops on the site for being the real deal, and if the world had more people like you, we'd all have more friends to hunt with.
Keep up with the great posts and threads and give a high five to all four of your close hunting bud's. Your a team player friend-of-ours, keep it going.
Jel --> hunter1947, a legend in our minds, on hbc -- our best hunting pal <--
you top the li$t for sharing in season and out --

Is this silvicon for real?

[Shooter]

why to you post a picture of a slob NOT showing respect to the animal by sitting on it?


Hahahaha. Lets put this into perspective.

He just shot and killed the animal. Then he cut it open and disemboweled it. After which they cut the hide off the animal. They then cut it into pieces...

But you have a problem with him sitting on it?? Get a life.. This is a hunting site. We kill things here.

[BuriedByTheDead]

^^^^^^^awesome + beautiful dog

[Vader]

It would appear he thinks that you can't touch em after you kill em..

[500grhollowpoint]

I too tell my kids to be respectfull to animals after we kill them. That means no poking thm in the eyes with a stick, not no sitting on it for a picture. If he was pretending to have sex with it, that would be different.

And I'm glad you have 4 partners. We support all lifestyles here on huntingbc.:mrgreen:

[gutpile]

what ??? :neutral:

[Chuck]

Why is that whitetail breathing fire :) ?

Because it's plugged in........notice the power cord? Lol.

[hunter1947]

why to you post a picture of a slob NOT showing respect to the animal by sitting on it?


Because I can :mrgreen: ,you don't know this person so how can you say he is a slob ???.

This person that is sitting on this elk is one of the nices person you can know ,he is my X brouther in law and has been one of my hunting partners for 30 years.

Do every body a favour....and f off...

[hunter1947]

I don't want this thread locked so just ignore the bad ass remarks from one poster http://www.huntingbc.ca/forum/images/icons/icon7.gif.

[frenchbar]

Nice to have a few good hunting partners h47 that get along good and can realy enjoy each others company in the woods..:cool:

[500grhollowpoint]

You know what offends me? People who get offended. Please put the pic back up with the dude sitting on the animal. It was a great pic and don't give in to the whiners. I think everyone else on this thread said they didn't think that you were disrespecting the animal at all....

[mike_b]

It's awesome that you've got 4 great hunting partners Wayne; I wish I could find one good one, but then again, my hunting "career" has only just begun.

Like hollowpoint said, please put the picture back up; that's one of the most magnificant animals that roam our land, and it's would be a shame not to show.

To me, and as a hunter, I think that we all show animals respect because we take them lawfully and ethically. And when we take them and take pictures of them, WHO CARES how we take those pictures; we're proud of what we've done and want to share it.......

I have to agree with you mike-b ,Silvicon was giving his opinion and anyone is allowed to give there opinion ,I just thought it was a little rude on his wording http://www.huntingbc.ca/forum/images/icons/icon7.gif.

[d6dan]

Hunter, whats the story on the last pic?:-?.Its a good whitey. and please put the elk pic back up. don't pay any attention to the negatives...:)

[Bow Walker]

Wayne - I've got a keeper myself.

He hauled my arse into the ambulance station when I had a heart attack while hunting bunnies, then the good buddy got my wife so she could accompany me to the hospital, and then - he came back to the hospital at 2 in the morning to pick her up and take her home - cause I was in for a day or two.

We've been buds for a year or two and he's one stand-up-guy, I can tell you - just like your buds. They're great to have and appreciate.

[Kitimat Killer]

h47 glad to see you have some good buddies i do alot of hunting by my self but got a few close friends are always there to pack and never back down no matter how far off the beaten path the animal is. please i never got to see the elk pic that was on here can you put it back up

Good to go hunting partners Wayne.I would bet that they all think your the greatest also.I'm also lucky to have some wonderful hunting partners.Like your partner I have also sat atop a few animals,and for a picture as well.Some give there opinion to cast a nasty spell , so it's just as well to stick with your own opinion.Good on you Wayne,you or your partners would be welcome in my camp any time.:smile:

[Jelvis]

Wayne your $till the best, don't let some people's talk about sitting on a dead animal fog reality. Setting a dead deer up for a photo is an art, and not all know the setting required, brahsky. The bent legs under the body, no blood, no guts, head up, ears out. Background clean no gut piles, sit behind animal but c'mon, your an elk hunter first and a hunter of other animals for decades you are a journeyman hunter. Seasoned.
You know hunting, and have some great hunting partnerz, your dependable, and do more than your share of work for the hunting party.
hunter1947, voted numero uno, again this season. Congratulations on your success this season also, another fantastic elk hunt, with story and photo's that should be in a major Out Doors Magazine this month.
jELVIS -- hunter1947, thank you, thank you very much --

Great post Wayne and I say it speaks volumes of your character when you take a moment to pay homage to your hunting Brethren.

A good hunting buddy is worth his weight in gold... and they're not easy to come by.

I have my quirks I'm sure but if a guy can put up with me I'll have his back till the end. You strike me as a guy you could count on when the 'shit-hits-the-fan'.

Ever find it's sort of funny how some guys morph into assholes when you finally get out in the bush with them for the first time?

Remember one guy a few years back who I became friends with over a period of 4 or 5 yrs while I worked as a bartender; first he was just another good customer but slowly we became friends. Then I found out he liked to hunt but hadn't been out for years, then finally I convinced him to come along one year. I was so stoked about the prospect of scoring another hunting buddy.

We finally arrive in camp up in the Kettle valley and he turns to me and says, "I don't do fu#kin' dishes dude!"

Another life-long huntin'-buddy was taken from me by drugs. He's recovering now, sort of. I still call him and invite him every year even though he doesn't come.

Another guy, soft spoken easy goin' father of two, upon arrival in our first hunting camp starts ordering everyone around like some goddam camp-commando!

The 11th Commandment: Covet thy Hunting Buddy!

[BCBear]

why to you post a picture of a slob NOT showing respect to the animal by sitting on it?

Sometimes you have to sit on it because of the extemely steep terrain around you..which is exactly what happened to me this weekend... and looks like the same to buddy here with the elk.
The earth isn't flat so lay off the judgemental stuff until you've been in the same situation.

[ELKOHOLICBC]

Great post Wayne. Thats a huge part of hunting the partnerships and the people you meet. All the memories and great strories. Your a lucky guy to have so many great hunting buddies Wayne and you're a great role model for future hunters.

[abbyfireguy]

Its nice to hunt with people you trust and who will do what it takes to get the job done.
Nothing worse than someone who expects to be waited on hand and foot.
When we hunt, we all pitch in and things get done quick.
My partner just got transferred to PG so I guess we'll be going to a new area next year after he finds all the secret spots up there!!:-D

[Blainer]

I find your threads and posts most informative and entertaining.
You would be welcome in my hunting camp anytime .
I have one great hunting partner and 3 younger fellas that I spend time in the bush with,all great people,and lets face it,for the most part chores around camp are common sense.The dishes are dirty,well obviously they need to be washed before the next meal and we need wood for the fire to burn.No sense in barking orders,most can see what needs to be done and again it's a hunting HOLIDAY,have fun.
I imagine some just dont use their heads.

#1 Having great hunting partners are when they will do there share of work around camp without being ask what to do it just comes natural from years hunting together.

#2 When two of you go out and hunt that day that one or the other have said if we see a nice 6 point bull elk or other animals that are open in the area you say to your partner you take it ,if it is an elk I will help identify it being a 6 point ,don't be greedy.

#3 When one of out partners get a big game animal down we all go get it back to camp.

#4 Respecting a hunting partners request and will do what ever it takes to for fill his or her demands.

#5 When using the main transportation truck that all in the party pitch in for the gas.

#6 When one of your hunting partners are trying to have a rest in the afternoon to have respect and make as little noise as possible.

#7 When handling a rifle or other to make sure you have the muzzle pointed in a safe manner and when it is in camp bolt open or if a leaver action it open and stored in a place where you will not be looking down the barrel.

#8 Have respect for other hunters that are hunting in the area you are hunting.

#9 Listen to your other hunting partners about what they say and this will go along ways in years to come.

#10 Respect a CO when he comes into your camp don't forget there there to keep the law and catch the bad people poacher etc.

#11 Share all game you got when on your hunt ,roast for 1 roast for 2 etc.

#12 Talk about on where everyone will want to hunt the next day. http://www.huntingbc.ca/forum/images/icons/icon6.gif http://www.huntingbc.ca/forum/images/icons/icon7.gif.
