I have a few cameras, for me they are discouraging. I’ve had them where I’ve killed elk to see the possibilities. So far I have next to nothing in my cameras yet I still like to hunt there, I must be abnormal.
There are a lot of technical items used for hunting that in my opinion take away from what hunting should be.
If Oregon banned them I would totally be ok with it. I would like to see them ban using bait first however.
while I do not bait , I am not opposed to it and would not vote to ban it. same goes for running with dogs.
as to the technical items ........sure can't argue that the use of cameras , radios, cell phones, gps, and even planes and copters has gotten way put of hand.
I am not really against banning all of it but we all know enforcement will be sporadic at best and it will be pretty much impossible to stop.
instead of banning , setting good examples for the youth is a better option in my mind.
and yes ,I am aware that is a fantasy in this age. there are not many good mentors left!
