jdub Report post Posted September 17, 2015 Hey guys, I have an odd request: Does anyone know who I can call to assist me SHOULD I be blessed enough to get a bull down in unit 11M? My partner had to back out of the hunt last minute and I am now hunting solo. I happen to have a messed up back and a sprained ankle just now healing. I can walk a long way but not with much weight. If anyone knows of any strong kids or someone else who would like to make some $, let me know...I'll pay them well. I just know if I get one down it will take me forever, I'll probably mess myself up again and I would have meat going bad. I probably wouldn't ask if they allowed off road travel to retrieve game in this unit, but they don't. Thanks in advance! Jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Helping someone pack out is different.Sadly it's still illegal even packing out. Making any money off an animal while in the field you have to have a guides license.

jdub Report post Posted September 17, 2015 ok, Thanks everyone. Anyone know who could help me for free? I'm prone to accidentally leave my new Eberlestock pack behind with something left in the pocket. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oz31p Report post Posted September 17, 2015 That not too odd a request. I would imagine most would do it for free. We are a sadomasicistc bunch. I know if I was local I would. I love packing animals out the nastier the hike the better. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daryl_s Report post Posted September 17, 2015 Is it illegal to pay in the form of a few cuts of the meat? I ask out of genuine curiosity. If I was up there I'd help for free. Very cool of those who already offered help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
