[QUOTE="338lapuaman, post: 5697315, member: 19539"] Sounds like a whole lot of butt hurt because of the lack of funds or the lack of willingness to spend the funds as a price to play the game. I hunt hogs in Alabama and we run into a lot of the same problems is the farmers/landowners want them gone so bad for destroying their crops and pastures and fields they turn a blind eye to the ones "road hunting" by any methods and means out of spite and hatred for the destruction they cause which in turn takes money out of their pockets. I started hunting them with just deer rifles and then moved to Night Vision and now on to Thermals and cell cam gate traps. Its the nature of the beast that comes along with technology. It has happened in everything I have ever enjoyed doing from sports to fishing to golf to various types of hunting I use to enjoy doing. The days of hard work and talents and abilities and skills and doing the right thing through means and methods driven by integrity and the value of a person's word are LONG GONE largely in part thanks to technology and hatred of hogs and people taking advantage of non-hunters and land owners.
