Cliff, I agree with you. But, it has been my experience few if any other hunters understand, let alone abide by these rules. Society, in general, has lost all sense of decorum. People are a selfish lot, and when you add into the mix time (time off work, to get ready, etc), money (cost of licenses, equipment, etc) and emotion (ego trip to get an animal, reputation, etc) it becomes an aggressive mad house where they feel entitled to ruined all other hunters experience. In all due respect, your rules were the standards 40 years ago. Now, it's dog eat dog.

I hear ya! Don't disagree with you that there seems to be a steady decline of treating others like you would like to be treated. If the video helps a few folks get along with a few other folks up in the mountains, it's a win for me. Nonetheless, wish I had a broader solution! Thanks for the comment.

​@@CliffGray hey Cliff, I thought you were about to talk about good and bad locations for backpack or spike camp set up. I know there's a lot of talk about where you should and shouldn't put camp but when I look at my hunting spots I get a little nervous about accidentally dropping camp in a location that someone thinks is wrong.

@@kel9796 I'll do a video on picking good camp spots. In terms of camping in spots that someone else thinks is wrong... I understand what you are saying. You can look at the comments on this video and you will see that several people feel like another person's choice of camp spot ruined the hunting in a certain area. It surely can, but this is typically overblown. From an experience perspective, I think the polite thing to do is give people privacy if, at all possible. That's what I touch on in this video. Now in terms of bumping elk with your camp, putting it in a bedding area, etc... just try to keep your camp out of obvious bedding areas. If there is fresh elk sign in the timber there, move off a bit. Several times I had guys tell me that one of my outfitting camps was put right where the elk bed... I'd giggle to myself given that most of those camps had been in those spots for 3 months before the season (summer fishing)... and for 30+ years seasonally before that :) BUT somehow now they were ruining the hunting.

I was pushed out of my camp this year by an outfitter. No words exchanged, started unloading their shit right in front of my tent. Horses walking up to my tent. I packed out back to my truck to find they blocked me in with their trailers. I took pics of their plates. I hope their out of state customers noticed their conduct. I hunt solo so I suppose I was easy to bully.

Cliff, great Video and topic. Only rule I question is the rule of first blood. I’ve been a firearm and bowhunter safety instructor for 10 years now and we always teach the kids that it’s the first one to make a lethal shot in a vital area of the animal. That’s also how the classroom manuals read that we teach from. If one guy hits one in the leg and a mile later the next guy puts one thru both lungs, seems to me it should be the second guy that claims it but that goes back to morals and ethics. I’d never try to claim it if I was the first guy that made a poor shot. Probably even help pack it out and hope he gave me some meat.
@CliffGray
@CliffGray Жыл бұрын
Yeah, you can see where some other comments have the same thought. Wish I would have clarified this more in video. I’ve always been first blood oriented because it’s really the only provable one. Who gut shot the bull and who double lunged it? Impossible to say. It’s very obvious who hit first, based on location of shots, the movement of the animal and blood trail. I do agree that reasonable hunters shouldn’t claim animals that they did not mortally wound

Great information, three times I have encountered guides and hunters on horseback. One resulted in an immediate notification from the wrangler of a grizzly that had moved in on a successful hunter and had been wounded. He recommended that we leave the area which we did with great appreciation of the warning. The second two times, a wrangler told us where he had seen mule deer behind him and we successfully harvested both deer. A friendly word and a reasonable question about game can be a great help on public land hunts. Especially for non resident hunters.

I hear ya Noah. I think it matters a bit on the type of access point it is. Spots that are clearly day hunt spots… park, walk up a small drainage - it does drive me nuts when people park next to you and then walk up and sit right under you, usually without noticing you are there… now on Wilderness access points, lots of ways to go, go in and setup camps, hunt big country- there could be 6 trucks there and it’s fine. Just depends on the spot a bit for me 👍

In Texas, on WMA’s and Type 2, you are not supposed to park within 100 yards of another hunter. I called in a nice buck a few years back an just before he broke cover, there was a rifle shot 50 yards from where I was hurting in the direction the deer was coming from. The hunt was ruined. When I got out to the road, there was a truck parked right next to mine.

Although I do partially agree with you, outfitters all too often have a sense of entitlement when sharing public land with public hunters. Too many outfitters have a false sense of ownership over hunting areas and camping spots. Your comment that "you don't want to even see another camp within sight of your own" because "it will affect your client's experience" is indicative of this. Like it or not, you ARE sharing the land, and if your client wanted a place all to themselves, they should have booked a private land hunt.

Agreed to everything you brought up. I think one category that could be covered in this or even separately is, Ego. I don’t care who anyone is but there is so much damn ego regarding hunting. This arrogant, egotistic attitude is detrimental to the positive outlook we as true genuine hunters and outdoorsman try to retain. Gear is often a topic of discussion and for some reason so many people believe that being an expert in “gear” makes you some sort of professional. Hunt because you love it. Not because you want people to love you. That’s my motto. Egos ruin a lot of experiences. And most of the time. Those egos are checked on the mountain. Great video Cliff!

Lots of great points man! I’ve fumbled around with the idea for an video… I agree with you that ego does screw up hunting but then I start to reflect on myself… it’s tricky for me because I do have a strong urge to work at getting better at these different outdoor activities… hunting, fishing, spearfishing and whatever the next thing is. Part of that is ego… so is it good in that regard? Drives you to get out in the field more. Perhaps it’s about when ego has us sacrifice enjoying the present in these activities for something superficial (likes/views on social media). I gotta think in this a bit more 👍 appreciate the comment

I had a situation where I was hunting in my usual camping spot in the wilderness for a week when a guide came in and set up camp less than 200 yards from me. They came to my camp and asked when I was leaving!? I had camped in the same spot probably for 8 years never had anyone camp by me like that. I was polite and just told him one more week and just told him where I was concentrating my hunt and I would make sure to stay out of his way, that there was plenty of mountain to hunt. He did not seem happy but just said , “Okay” Man , they were loud at night! I left two days earlier than plan, it went down hill from there. It all my 35 years that was the only bad experience I have had hunting, so count your blessings.

I wish more people showed common courtesy. So far this year three times people have worked in on me while turkey hunting. One shot the bird I was working, one missed, and one managed to chase it away. They all parked right next to me in the parking lot and walked down the same muddy road in my tracks. Last fall I had an outfitter let his bear dogs go right next to my car and they treed a bear a hundred yards from me. I had an outfitter walk up behind me while elk hunting in Colorado, he told me to move along and that he was hunting there after he and client walked two miles in my tracks, in the snow. I asked him why didn’t you see my tracks and he said he thought they were from the other day and told me move along. It was opening morning. I’ve ran into a handful of people that a courteous but it’s the minority it seems. Typically 50% of my days are lost to interference. Not complaining but I don’t think the “unwritten rules” are reaching the right audience.

Cliff I agree with all you said. I do have a question that my son and have wondered what is proper. We usually go in with llamas and have come upon camping sites that look like an outfitter or some other hunters may have used or set up for future use. Wood piles stacked, hitching posts, raised food poles, etc. But there are no tents or other signs that it is being used at that time. These sites look like they have been used for years, some of them look like they haven't been used in a long time. We often wonder did an outfitter or other hunter already use it, or are they going to be coming to set up within the next week, or is it a last year's camp that is no longer being used. So to keep us from being jackasses, is a site that is not being currently used OK to set up in? Do outfitter typically have their camps that they are going to use that year set up before the season. We do understand that it is much harder for an outfitter to change locations. We also understand that this is their livelihood. Again we want to be very respectful to all the other people out there.

Hey Bruce, Most outfitters have their camps in well before the season, partially to avoid the potential conflict you mention. I use to put up a little sign in my camp spots in Summer - they were given to me by USFS. It didn't say that folks couldn't use the spot but it just gave them a heads up that a camp would be there during the hunting seasons. Helped people plan who were out scouting. Short answer to the situation you mention - if there isn't camp/people in the spot when you roll-in, you can setup shop there. That may urk some folks but first-come/first-serve is fair from my point of view. good luck out there man!

Cliff. I wanted to share with you that I was blessed enough to get to guide my 13 year old granddaughter on a public land elk hunt in New Mexico this year (2023). On the last morning of the hunt she killed a massive 6X8 bull that the taxidermist scored at 373.75. He has two partial broke points. If he was not broken he would be between 380 to 390. Perseverance was the key. We killed him 2 miles off of road and a canyon over. Shocking watching how many hunters we could see from the cap rock that would never get out off their vehicles and climb over a mountain. We saw 5 bulls in this canyon. I would love to share the photos with you, I just don’t know how. I do not post them on Facebook. I am a big fan of yours. I teach Hunters Ed and it is great to see you pass along your valuable field knowledge. Jeff

Most of what you said. BUT, the camping part.... I've met a lot of cool people because of this. Sometimes it's just an understanding. Sometimes good meals, a few beers or a shot of whiskey or two and some good information pays out. And I usually find out their plans so I can stay out of their way. And sometimes if you're in steep country there really isn't too many camping options. But I get what you're saying from an outfitter perspective. I give them the opportunity to make their money. But good whiskey usually makes good friends in this situation. And outfitters will usually give you their boundaries. And usually if you are setting up a day or two before the opening, that's when they are setting up so it's a good time to talk.

Great video Cliff as always. And full of useful information. All of it seems like common sense to most people. But there are always those assholes that have to ruin it for everyone. I’ve been fortunate enough to have not have had any issues on any of my backpack hunts and always try to be as respectful and friendly as possible to anyone I’ve ever interacted with in the backcountry. We’ve all put a lot of time, effort , and money into getting back there, life’s a lot easier for all of us if we’re civil with one another. Actually, there was one thing that happened to myself that I was a little annoyed with. It was Archery mule deer season and I was seven miles in and found out that a lion hunter with dogs in August had ran his dogs on foot through the bottoms of all the basins I had to hunt the day before I got back there. Now I love Lyon hunting and think it’s awesome, but I feel like it was kind of a dick move. He boogered up all the deer and pushed them around . I definitely would’ve lost my shit if I was in there at the time and witnessed him blow all the deer out of the basin I was attempting to hunt. I understand I don’t own the backcountry and he has just as much of a right to be there as I do. But I feel like archery season is one time of year that a Lyon hunter should avoid running dogs through certain areas out of respect for the amount of effort it takes to get back there and be successful. The odds are already completely stacked against me. And I definitely can’t just hop in my truck the same day and head to a different area. Cliff, I’m curious to hear your opinion on that. Was that a shitty thing to do on his part, or am I in the wrong for being annoyed with the situation? He didn’t ruin my hunt, but it did take me a few days to turn up deer that I otherwise could’ve turned up on the first or second day.

"We’ve all put a lot of time, effort , and money into getting back there, life’s a lot easier for all of us if we’re civil with one another.' - This statement is right on point! On this lion hunting deal - yes, I don't think you should be running dogs during open deer/elk seasons in areas with deer/elk hunters.

Killed a bull on a public ridge in 2019. Opening Day 2020 I went back on that ridge and heard a shot. Half an hour later I walked up on an orange clad hunter hunched over a nice bull. I offered to help and he told me he knew this was a good spot because he saw a carcass “right over there” last season. I said yeah, that was my bull. He told me not to get discouraged that he killed a bull because he saw elk all over the ridge the previous season even after seeing my carcass. I helped him out and he cooked up a mountain house (thanksgiving dinner) for me, and a week later I went back up that ridge and killed a bull. You can draw a triangle between his bull and my bulls from that year and the year before and not one side of the triangle is more than 200 yds.

Thanks. In many States it’s similar and it’s a logical approach, theoretically. Challenge I have with it is that these circumstances happen a lot with bunched up, concentrated and running/moving game. In those scenarios, how do we tell who’s hole is who’s? If I single lung a bull… it runs a qtr mile before bedding down, another hunter whacks it in its wounded bed while I’m blood tracking. Was the bull fatally hit? It’s debatable… I totally understand your perspective but prefer the more objective nature of first blood. Appreciate the comment and perspective 👍 thanks

Good advice. Seems very outfitter centric though - I'd agree with these rules If an outfitter and client did not camp at my spot If I arrived first as they'd be affecting my hunting experience. I've never seen an outfitter reciprocate this rule. If you're saying outfitters are limited to certain spots due to logistics, this seems to imply that they have rights to certain public grounds, which I don't really agree with.
@CliffGray
@CliffGray Жыл бұрын
Outfitters should abide by the same rules. Most outfitters have their camps in weeks before the season… so being first isn’t an issue really. When I mentioned the logistics, I meant it in the sense that if you camp near them… it’s difficult for them to move camp to get distance from you. I should have clarified that.

There is plenty of area in that for both to hunt, especially if there is ridges. But completely agree about camping in ear shot. Then I do come from NZ so our terrain is different.

I wish others would follow these rules. If we all abided by it, we’d all have much better experiences in the field. I was stalking what would have been my first bull elk. He was following a cow and was about to turn broadside. Then a hunter took a 500+ yard shot on a very windy day and missed by about 5 ft. He said he saw me going in on a stalk but I wasn’t shooting so he figured it would be ok for him to shoot….said he also didn’t see the bull that was about 10ft behind the cow. Don’t hunt that spot anymore even though we’ve always gotten into elk in that area

What about when you've been scouting for 3 days before season, and 30 mins before you start out the trail an outfitter rolls in with horses, blows every elk out of that entire drainage that you were hoping to put your senior father on his first elk. Your suggestions work both ways. I've been sh!t on and helped out both in the Backcountry. Never by a guide or outfitter. The ones I've run into think they "own" the public, and are only worried about making money. You seem to be a different breed.

Outfitters should follow the same guidelines. I don't disagree with that. However, I do think that there are times that DIY hunters don't see the whole picture. In the end, outfitters are service providers... their clients are members of the public, hunting with State issued tags. To your point though, guides/outfitters should treat people like that want to be treated.

Cliff, another point I'd like to add is if a hunter happens upon a ground blind situation, they should back out and avoid that local area in involved with the ground blind hunt. It falls upon the code of interrupting another man's hunt. Wearing orange is a good thing. It allows other hunters to see you better so's not to interrupt your hunt.

Very good video you had a lotta great points. I will keep in mind when I’m out in the field. But there is one thing that outfitters do out here in Arizona specially, up on the rim is have 10 or 15 of their bodies keeping tabs on a specific deer for a client of theirs. And come opening day they’re running everyone else off of that animal as if it’s theirs already. Not only did they get up on the hill with about 10 spotting scopes find the animal they want and then protest it’s theirs for their client is a bunch of bullshit. I understand everyone needs to share the woods but I was shocked to see professional outfitters conducting business this way. Maybe the outfitter should take some ethical advice from others in the field.

I don’t disagree with you. I’ve guided many, many hunts and never told someone “that’s my clients animal”, etc… I’m sure there are some idiots that have. Now, I have had several instances where hunters shot animals while I was on a stalk with a client… and it was clear that’s what we were doing. I told them my perspective on it, their response was that I didn’t own the wildlife and I could go to hell… obviously much different circumstances but things can get twisted up in the woods sometimes Thanks for the comment 👍

Great points! I wish more hunters would watch this as I have experienced almost everything you mentioned as reasons why to follow each rule. I have a question about how the public hunter should handle this situation: You are a public land hunter that is set up in an area (in the trees) that you know the elk move through. There is a trail running through this area and during your time there an outfitter rides in on the trail with a client. The outfitter gets off his horse and pulls out a chainsaw and begins cutting a fallen tree in the trail. You stand up to let the outfitter know you are there and he spots you and ignores your presence. Frustrated, you leave your setup. What would you do?

Holy, crap, rule #2. We scraped body parts off my buddy’s truck getting to a glassing spot that wasn’t necessarily the end of the road. Two spotting scopes set up glassing two different slopes. I was on a set of handhelds trying to pick apart the closer and parts in between. Here come two four wheelers that absolutely had to see the end of the road. We ended up going back down the mountain and finding a spot halfway back to the “main road” where my friend’s son killed his Elk the next morning. I believe we found a repeatable spot, so the whole thing worked in our favor, but it was frustrating at the time. Regarding the theme of the video? Generally being considerate of other hunters? Karma can be a real bitch if it wants, and I want as many points in the + column as I can gather when I’m in the hills. The hunting gods know; they just do.

Years ago when I Hunted mule deer in the mountains between my home town of placerville, Ca, & lake Tahoe, other Hunters were respectful, had solid mountain Hunting skills of their own. Out here in Michigan, Your rules will get you shit on 5 days a week on public land & twice on sunday. I've had people use drones to follow me to hunting spots & steel trail cameras in locations extremely remote & difficult access. I've had private land owners run their atvs along their public land borders at dawn & dusk every single day from October 1 ---to gun season. As for Outfitters, I give as good of respect as I'm Given. If I know someone is near me & they were there first, glassing, camping, hunting etc, I'll move on. If they come in on me & set up in my lap, I'll walk into your camp & piss in your camp fire, I don't give a shit. It's like Ice fishing, I don't use tipups, because if you pull up a fish on open Ice outside of a shack, in an hour you'll have more assholes around you than in a walmart parking lot.

My experience last year was a guy flagging me down as I was returning to camp. He knew by where my truck was parked, which drainage I was hunting. The next evening after shooting and missing, same guy flags me down. I told him I missed a raghorn, and gave him a location across the drainage about 1/2 mile from me. Told him we would be back in the morning. Next day, there's the guy. Exactly where I told him I was hunting. He was flagging me as I walked by him across the drainage. The next evening as we were driving out with our elk, he flagged me down again. This time he wasn't as cheerful. He was explaining to me that HE was on location before me and that I should have left the drainage when I saw him on the other side. I explained to him that's why I walked further up the drainage and one the other ridge. He accused my of screwing up his hunt and lying to him about where I saw the elk. I told him I did lie, but his lack of ability was the reason for his failed hunt and I was the only reason he got to see a dead elk that day. I left him with a "you're welcome" and a lesson in keeping my mouth shut.

When riding, no light is best. Red light is 2nd. Trusting your horse with no light can be a bit scary at first but you get used to it. Ride length depends on conditions and hunters. I always liked my morning rides 1hr-ish but during tough conditions I’ve ridden 2.5-3hrs in the dark. Horse milage is about 3mph on the trail. A 15-20mi day would be a big day. 5-10 the norm 👍

These would be tough to apply back East. Some quota hunts put one hunter per 10 acres. If the weather is good, nearly all of the drawn hunters will attend. Hunters typically show their presence in treestands by using a flashlight. I have went to a scouted tree 1.5 hours before daylight and had 7 flashlights visible. I laughed out loud that day and went back to the truck. That was also the last day I attempted to hunt on popular quota hunts out here.
