Complaining about them and making out they have wronged you just makes you sound, well, a bit whiney.

I have heard the same complaint leveled at people who write magazine articles, and I thought the same thing then too.

AS for people visiting your spots after you showed them....thats human nature. Why did you show it to them if you minded them going back without you? It was a gift of a hunting spot. The purest gift there is between men

However, what is wrong, is them coming back with their mates. That is a personal affront and an abuse of your generosity.

@Carlsen Highway no not possessive of public land nor do I have a secret spot (only the odd one but know it is others also) just very perplexed at the detail people are putting in really, don't worry me where as you still have to know how to hunt it. I have 1 spot that is very popular to the point you almost need to book it, it produces animals if you know how to hunt it. I gets popular when people now you are getting loads of deer out and then less popular when they are unsuccessful.

Was just a generalisation in the current generational trend and wondered if there maybe a link

Ah, ok.
But in that case, now I am not sure what the problem is. Whats wrong with people being specific about where they are hunting? Far better than the old "ünnamed" river, "somewhere". Places are important. They are as important as what you do in them.

I shall retire to meditate on this.
