I helped a young man a few years ago on the ins and outs of trapping. 2012 I think when the cat market was hot. Told him how to manage the cat population, but he went scorched earth after he caught his first on all the ground around me. Won’t make that mistake again. Pretty disappointing

I shot my archery deer early one year told some guys that hunt there they could use my stands that year only, the next year I about had to beat them out of my stands.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

See I told you , you just cant trust anybody. Show a fella the honey spots and a few tricks and there you have it. Darn cowboys cant be trusted.LOL I'll get you permission on twice as many spots if you come back out .... I probably can find you a cabin to stay at with a friend of mine but you will have to put up with the peacocks. AND the guineas! lol

Well, I don't like going with people to their "secret spots" on public land... The problem is, if they take me to their secret spot and it's within 100 miles, chances are I already know about it or will find it soon. Most of the spots around here change on a yearly basis depending on adjacent cropping systems. It takes a lot of scouting to know where good spots are on a yearly basis. When I find those spots, I don't want people to think I'm breaking the "unwritten rule", so I'd rather go hunting alone than go with a fiend to a spot I haven't been to before. Nothing worse than a spot-stealer, and I don't want anybody to think I stole their spot.
That being said, I've shown friends spots that they would have never found on their own (not much for scouting) and they go scorched earth after I show them. Typically, if I can swallow my pride and go hunt with them again, I'll take them to worthless spots and consider any hunting success to be extra to the time spent outside.
So, if you're worried about someone stealing your spot, try taking them to a bad spot instead!

Some people are very inconsiderate. I always have a rule, if someone shows me a place to hunt or fish I only go there with them. I never tell anyone else where that spot is. I think it was always that way in the past, but I see your situation occuring more and more. I have the same policy. Not everyone so considerate though.

Getting there, I have always wanted to try out falconry. I never have because I don’t think I could give the bird the time and attention it needs. Maybe someday, when my kids aren’t small anymore Bob: Falconry is not for everyone, I am old school. It takes a great deal of time to do it right. It become a life style. Not like any other type of hunting. CA. has an outstanding field meet every year that you may want to look into.

2 Kings 20:12-15 King James Version
12 At that time Berodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah: for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
13 And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.
14 Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, even from Babylon.
15 And he said, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All the things that are in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.
