I've hunted with Jackson marsh before. The guy is lazy and puts no work into finding his own spots. He needs to stay out of Iowa.

Hunting with like minded people is always fun, I have been fortunate to hunt a lot with Dan in the last 5 years. I have learned to be an observer and listener... the most fun is coming up with plans for specific sets or locations.. then executing on them... when you are doing multiple sits and both guys have like minded goals you can really work together to break down and area and stack the odds in your favor... then share in each others successes and failures :D

Hodag and I went musky fishing once this year, but no hunting.

It would be fun for some of us SE WI guys to get together. Maybe I'm naive but I doubt the people I'm thinking of would steal each others spots. We're all honest enough and work hard enough to respect boundaries. I have such a growing list of public SE WI spots, I'd love to see if others think I'm on the right track.

Have not hunted with any known Beasts. My buddy that I have hunted with for 20 plus years since we were kids is not nearly as hungry for putting work in as I am. Which is fine, I just have finally learned to not let that slow me down.

If anyone is ever interested in doing some late winter/early spring public land scouting, feel free to message me. I live in Waukesha Co.

I feel the same way!

I think there are a few beasts less than an hour from me, but it doesn't sound like we hunt any of the same areas. I also have a ever-expanding list of spots in Fond du Lac, Sheboygan & Washington counties.

Even to just get together and meet each other since we all live so close.

I have fished with Magicman, Muddy and Justin84 and hunt with Magic on occasion. We discuss conditions and tactics a lot over the phone.

Sometimes he even goes to my house when I'm out of town working.....he says just to plow the driveway but my wife always has a big smile on her face when I get home. Magic is a great guy. Lol

Have told stories with a few cocktails with other members, one night with crazy Ed from the East coast.

Met other members and trade texts through out the year trying to align schedules to at least fish together someday. Some great guys on this site.

IMO it's good to scout or hunt with another. He sees things I don't or vice versa. Having 2 different opinions about an area can be a great learning tool. One of you will be wrong while the other is spot on. It's a great way to speed up the learning curve if your open minded and if you are both like minded in a sense. On the same cycle :lol: :lol:

I did for the first time this year with CBay. It was really fun and I hope we get to do it again sometime. Comparing notes and strategizing together added a whole new deminsion.

Our hunt was on a property neither of us been to before. I think that is the way to go. That way nobody feels encroached on or taken advantage of.

I would say pick someone with similar outlook, work ethic and desire.

I seem to recall you leaving early because "the deer aren't moving" on the day I killed my last Iowa buck. I also remember you not showing up for the brutal drag out :mrgreen:

I've cyber scouted with a few beasts to get their input. I have 2 buddies that I hunt a few days with. It's nice with the one out of town since he's not on the same spots I am when I can't get out. My other buddie and I have been in the same area, but normally not together, so we are sharing on what is going on. it is nice to have another with you as you try to figure out what is happening in a large area that would take years to understand on limited time.

In years past when i got fired up and tried to share stuff with another hunter it was like talking to a pet rock.

Hunting with Pk this fall was a great experience and i'm sure we'll hunt more in the future together. Being on the same page and having similar goals and strategies made things super smooth.

If you get a chance to hunt with a fellow Beast i'd say your chances of having a lot in common is much higher than non Beast members.
Scout.  Learn.  Hunt
