well being an outsider, meaning a NON ohio resident
I honestly think that the major amount of folks on this site do NOT hunt other states other than Ohio
and that could be why we have less folks here
or maybe its just , and again just my 2 cents
it doesn't really seem like anyone on this site talks about hunting any place else but ohio, minus the few members that run out west for elk
I know over the yrs I have shared many of my out of state hunts, even offered a lot of great onfo on some super hunts for the cheap that could be had
and I never got much feedback, not expecting anyone to go just cause I went or recommend a place
but just didn't seem like anyone really cared about hunting any place BUT ohio for the most part
and again as a NON resident, it does seem like many folks don't like NON residents at times here
I think most have an open mind, and I sure get it, NO one likes a person looking to get free info that doesn't live here
but at the same time, over the yrs I have seen many new folks that just joined in that live in Ohio, get a LOT more offers for help finding a place to hunt in ohio, than a non resident asking for same info?
a new member is a new member and what state they live in shouldn't matter to me
but it does in all honestly seem to here more than other sites I been on!
I grew up in a state and an area where NON res hunters were frowned on, so I get that many have that , lets say breed into them due to yrs of that thinking
but my stance has always been , hunters need to stick together, or hunting some day will fall
as for a suggestion
and I have no idea on or if its possible
maybe an outfitter here or just someone with some good lands, can maybe offer a free hunt in a contest, as a way to generate some more action here?
I don't have land in Ohio, or I know I would be willing to take a guy if it helped get some action on the site!
I know this can be a dirty question maybe, but hey
never know who you will meet and what friendship could happen
and would a couple days of letting a person hunt be that Huge a deal?
sure it could suck if they killed your target buck, but maybe you could add a deal that this"X" buck is off limits
just an idea!
