Funny you say that as it is a concern of mine that I've already brought up. So far it sounds like the people I've connncted with are safe as well. There's a vetting process on both sides.

That's great to hear. Make sure to post your success or stories for all to enjoy!

shoot straight!

I also know people that bring brandy or coffee mixed with something to the stand with them. I have done it and still do but i ONLY have A shot and a cig after the kill.I wait until all work is done and then it's on. .There are "bad apples" out there but dont put everyone in the same boat.I do agree the "party" belongs at camp..Just my 2 cents..

I'm hesitant to hunt with someone that even drank the night before. Ive seen people who were under the influence the night before not make smart choices the next morning out in the duck boat.

If it wasn't for me one of my buddies could be blind today. He decided after only getting a few hours of sleep on heavy night of binge drinking to shoot vertically at some geese.

He kept watching them fly over after the shot and I strongly suggested he looked down. He asked why, and I said just do it now. Than we got rained on with #2 steel shot.

Ever since than if my buddies were out drinking the night before in an extensive manner I don't even show up to get them the next morning.

I know that if you are legally drunk you can get your license revoked. Not sure how long. I don't believe there is anything about possessing alcohol. I could be wrong.I do know that if you accidentally kill someone, even if it was an accident while under the influence, you will be getting charged with manslaughter and spend a few seasons in jail.

I am almost sorry i chimed in and gave my opinion... With that said, i hope everyone uses common sense and is safe out there...

No need to be sorry! You do the right thing. AFTER the job is done. I think people who bring a bottle with them, or drink before. they shouldn't be hunting at all.

Another option would be Potlatch Co. land. I used to have a lease with them and as far as i can remember unleased land is open for public use. Jump to their HSOforum and look for the lease manager he will get back to you pretty quick, at least he did when I asked him questions. You can also get the GPS coordinants and ariel maps for land parcels. Good luck.

I got a 6-point buck last night at about 4:14. I got it dressed and hung up before dark. I was on public land north of Duluth. I still can't believe it. Thanks everyone for all your advice. There is a lot of land to hunt if you're willing to drive. The PRIM map I got at the Minnesota store was invaluable.

It was moving when I shot it and it dropped on the spot. Notuntil i got in the ribcage did I realize that i hit the spine. Incredible. I feel very fortunate right now.
