[QUOTE="Maddog, post: 429106, member: 5355"] Perhaps. I have landowners whose land I have hunted for years. And I am the only one hunting their property. Last year one landowner asked me if it was okay if he took his son (8) now. The parent was not a turkey hunter then. Unbelievable. But a true story. Another of my landowners was "too" busy with his farming to hunt. About five years ago I talked him into getting a spring turkey permit and I would "guide" him giving him the decoys etc. The short of it I called in two gobblers on his first hunt and after I am waiting and waiting for him to shoot (we were in separate spots on the ground) he finally shot and got one. He asked why I didn't shoot. I just laughed. And now he goes hunting (by himself) every spring. His property is golden. I still hunt in the fall on it. I love hunting. Like others if you treat people with respect and give them due rewards they will usually treat you kindly in return . . . I am so thankful my Dad taught me to enjoy the outdoors. Stop by in the off season just to talk. You would be surprised how lonely most people are and just want to have a nice conversation with someone. I will get off of the soap box. LOL [/QUOTE]
