The guy that owns Jimmy Johns chain puts a bounty out for 200"+ bucks. When a land owner or guide finds one he flys in with a helicopter kills the buck. Pays his money and flys out. Just what I've heard.

Think I herd something like that before too. I just cant see how that would be exciting at all....

Loaded some black powder (pyrodex) shotgun shells today. I dont have any shotgun reloading equipment yet so I made a couple pieces out of 3/4'' round steel and used my drill press to put the primers in and push the wads down tight. No scale yet either. I ended up counting out 71/2 shot bb's to get the load I wanted and then measured them by volume with my ML powder measure. It went pretty well for my first time. Thanks for all your help and advise CC!

Could be but it still wouldnt be exciting to me. lolWall decor acquisition...I'm sure it beats staring at ugly paintings.
So I hear he is a very large person. So I guess if you gots the cash and want to hunt I guess this is how it's done.

I have a hard time thinking of it as hunting but I guess if you have the money and want to kill animals its a good way to do it although I kinda have a problem with someone putting a bounty out for a big buck and would rather see it on someones wall that hunted hard and earned.
Someone earned it by finding it, the reward to them is the chunk of cash instead of a big deer on the wall.
If I had a ton of money laying around I wouldn't say I'd be above it, but I think I'd rather try a J.Y. Young tour of North America and try to accomplish his feat with a Hoyt.

I guess I see it differently. How does he get tags for these places or are they landowner tags?

I guess on landowner tags its not as bad. I thought public first, then was wondering how he got tags. Im a little slow at times. lol
I think if I had that kinda money I would buy a couple landowner tags every year. Get there early and hunt (unguided) till I filled the tag or the season ended and if I didnt punch the tag I wouldnt worry a bit since I could go again next year. I would definitely be hunting in some other countrys too.

Other countrys and Alaska I would want to go guided weather it was required or not because I know nothing about them, but down here I think I would find a few good ranches with LO tags I could go to every year and just hunt on my own unguided and get to know them. That would be fun
Soooo....which state do y'all belong in?
