[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5531536, member: 17"] I couldn't agree more. Personally, I don't know why stands are allowed to be left in the woods on public property. But if they are, then I have no problem with someone pulling the card and seeing what's on it from a camera left on public property. Again, personally, I don't think stands should be allowed to be left in the woods on public ground, nor I do I think cameras should be allowed on public ground. But that's just me, and I don't have a dog in this fight (I don't hunt public land). This is the only part of your argument I have a problem with. It takes much, MUCH less skill to place a stand for hunting than it does to get an old buck on camera. A gun reaches a long way from a stand, and any deer moving in the gun's range can be taken. It doesn't take that much skill to find a good-looking area and decide to hunt it. However, it takes [B]considerable knowledge and skill[/B] to place a camera where a mature buck is going to walk close enough to it to get his picture taken. Basically, closer than most can accurately shoot a bow. If you had to "put the puzzle pieces together" to find that spot to hunt, so did the person placing the camera, and the person placing the camera has to get much closer than most hunters. [/QUOTE]
