No sense gettin mad about it Bones, and I wasn't lieing, I do know guys that won't leave the camp in hunting season or walk down a trail if they gotta seperate from the other hunters. Ya they're wusses but if they can't step one foot into the bush without someone holding their hand do you really think they should be hunting? I think they should be making supper and and I should be able to call them Nancy when I get back from a good days hunt.
Being comfortable in the bush by yourself is a learned skill and it takes alot of practice. Some will never be comfortable alone in the bush. Personall I prefer to hunt by myself and enjoy my own company in the bush. I am proficient with a compass and wouldn't head into the bush without one.
Having said that, when one drops an animal and has to drag it out by ones self it can be a bugger. I pulled my back out last year and let me tell you after the bullet leaves the barrel it is not much fun dragging the animal out of the bush.
When it comes to hunting the bigger animals like moose or elk I would love to drop one on the road but I just ain't that lucky.

I've hunted quite a few roads but actually i prefer to hunt toads. Not too pretty but if conditions are just right you can get a mountain equipment co-op day trippper full of them. They don't taste all that good but they're green OK and nobody makes stupid posts about them on CGN so that's all good..

Ontario law says you must be "outside the fences" along any fenced road.
Here's the quote:
You must not discharge firearms from or across any right
of way for public vehicular traffic in any part of Ontario
designated in the Regulations or from or across the
travelled portion in any other area. This does not apply to
an unmaintained right-of-way unless the regulations provide
otherwise. Generally, you are not allowed to have a loaded
firearm between the fences, or if no fences, within eight
metres from the edge of the travelled portion of a right of
way for public vehicular traffic in parts of Ontario as listed in
the Regulations. These regulations apply year round in most
of Ontario south of the French-Mattawa river system
(however, in some areas of southern Ontario, they only apply
during the gun season for deer). Contact an MNR office for
specific information.

And in Alberta road laws only apply to public roads, we have hundreds (maybe thousands ) of kilometers of oil lease and logging roads, where those laws don't hold sway. So we're back to the "if it's not illegal, it's not poaching" position again. Why everyone figures that thier two bits worth of thought should be the be all and end all for everyone else is completely beyond me. You think your standards are right for everyone? What are you, a liberal? - dan
