[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 42056, member: 3"] Okay, I'll try first. I have several expectations. 1. I expect to be treated as a person of worth and as if I have some understanding of hunting and shooting. 2. I expect to be met on time and taken/placed on time and picked up on time. 3. I DO NOT expect to be paraded around on an imaginary leash during non-peak hunting hours as if I were a dog just to make it appear that we're hunting and I'm getting my monies worth. 4. I expect that if the outfitter does not believe something I say, shooting ability, hunting experience, etc. that the issue(s) be discussed and tested if need be. I do NOT expect to be put off and/or dismissed. 5. I expect the outfitter to be truthful with me, if it's slow say so. 6. I expect the "guide" to have some experience and not mearly a warm body. 7. I expect the guide/outfitter to have at least as much experience as I do. I do NOT intend to train my guide as a full time job. 8. I expect things to be planned so that there is no last minute rush to make connections. 9. I expect to be able to read about local game and other pertinant laws. 10. I really don't care what the last fella shot. 11. I don't like to hunt in someone elses trash. If the last fella to use a blind was a slob, pick the junk up before putting the new hunter there. 12. I like to have an understanding of local customs/beliefs/norms so that when I meet folks I don't appear to be an inconsiderate idiot. (A regular idiot is fine but inconsiderate is not good [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]) 13. I do NOT want to be around when there is a disagreement between hunting staff. If you're gonna chew the helps ***, do so away from me. 14. I expect to be treated as a normal local visitng friend/person, food, accomodations etc. I don't care to be treated as royalty or someone far above the regular folks. 15. I guess what I'm saying is I expect to be treated with respect and dignity, not as a cash cow. 16. I expect to follow the guides rules. Enough for now I guess. Hope this helps/informs [/QUOTE]
