After reading everyone's ideas on what to try and film I have a question to ask. It seems that Randy is trying to promote hunting on public/accessible lands and showing that anybody can do it. With that said some of you suggested horse hunts or Alaska or even back east. Others replied well we don't have horses ect...... So where do you want the line drawn as too what is a doable hunt an OYO hunt?
For me some peoples responses are way too nit picky, saying "well I couldn't do that because I don't have the means." Well my thoughts are that not everyone could afford to even put gas in their trucks to head out or maybe you don't have a 4-wheeler to use to get down the trail (legal of course)or horses ect..... Does this mean that we can't film those kind of hunts? I think it ridiculous to try and please everyone. We are all in different stages financially and physically for that matter. I couldn't afford to head out east to hunt whitetails but that doesn't mean that it isn't doable. I could save my money and plan for that trip. The same goes for owning a 4 wheeler, horses or a super cub for that matter.
I bring this all up in hopes that we all don't over analyze every detail and try to pick it apart as to whether it's a doable OYO hunt. I think the focus should be on the accessible lands that we could hunt and doing it unguided. Maybe that requires saving money for a plane trip or horse rentals, gas for vehicles or whatever it may be. Not every hunt is just walk out your back door and shoot a deer. Most hunts require a bit of money, time and effort and in this usually a rewarding OYO experience.
