Big difference between a 'leader', and a 'boss'. Most people like one, and dislike the other.

The difference is this:

A boss tells you what to do.

A leader makes you want to do it.

The best leaders makes you want to do nothing else.

I agree. Driving the bush like dogs and blasting deer as they run past you is NOT hunting. They are probably unethical hunters. I hunt at a camp that is owned by 2 guys. Invite only. When it comes time to hunt we all decide which way we are going and if we all want to walk through the bush looking for moose or deer.meals are shared and everyone cleans up, starts a fire when needed, does their part to Kell the place clean. I don't want to be a part of a group of camp that had regimented rules. We are all out here for one thing...to have fun... strengthen relationships.... enjoy creation and put some meat in the freezer.
I read done of these posts where clearly the camp owner is power tripping and feels the need to bark orders. No thanks, you wil simply get a shot in the mouth. It is good to have someone in some sort of leadership role or no one would every leave the cabin or know what stand they are going to. All I'm saying is treat others as you want to be treated and it will all work out. Good luck on the hunt.

Hunting with dogs and or drives is not unethical in my mind, there are people who shoot when they do not have a clear or ethical shot but the method of hunting does not define if it is ethical or not.

All legal methods are valid and have their place, jerks are the problem.

Well I for one am glad that I have been put in my place as a "NOT Hunter". I might be unethical as well if driving bushes is unethical. Lol, love the guys telling everyone what hunting is and is not.

So driving deer is illegal? Good to know.

Because if it isn't than you are an unethical person for judging people without knowing them.

I suspect you are probably a very unethical hunter.
Just calling a spade a spade.

Better take all my rabbit beagles to the vet. Would hate to be caught with Illegal and unethical hunting gear.

Of course it may be unethical to simple kill a kennel of happy health dogs.

What I mean to say is get on the ground and hunt the deer, stalk. Driving them like Portuguese and croations on 4 wheelers isnt hunting.

What does it matter how one hunts, so long as it's legal, I don't give a sh+t what others think is ethical or unethical. I guess according to you I must be unethical because I hunt from a stand and not the ground. Hunting with dogs has its place, can bring success, and adds excitement to a hunt.

No doubt the broad brush approved for use by your "Atoner."

I'd have to say that the 10 or so years I spent waiting to even see my first deer driven to me by hounds on a central Ontario deer drive felt a lot more like hunting than shooting.

You're talking large tracts of bush and low deer density. It isn't exactly fish in a barrel.

Eventually I decided that the confusion of large group hunts wasn't exactly my thing. Although there is something you experience in those hunts that you can't get anywhere else. But you wouldn't know about that...

What I find around here lately is people have an awful lot to say about stuff they've never done.
