no. guns ablazing is a phrase. they jumped out in their orange at 8 am thinking they were in the right area which they weren't. i tried to explain to them where they needed to be but they didn't seem to want to listen.

Ok gotcha, Where I come from "Guns a Blazin" means that your shooting the crap out of something. So this would be the first test of the new system without having to meet an Area Guide first, than hunt. Just can't wait to see what happens when youth are not involved and it's grown adults arguing over an area.

People hunt on post everyday without an area guide. I can't imagine there will be much issue.

were these guys out around area 91,92 ? Cause some youth hunters showed up back in 87a and didn't know where they were.

Be better if you fellers just called Fort Knox. Getting info from a hunting forum is a recipe for disaster.

Unless it’s medical advise. This is the #1 go to for all medical questions!

There will be issues if area guides are done away with. Every year we deal with folks thinking they are in the correct area but they are not. Oddly enough more times than not it is the military that we have had more issues with boundaries or time management.

I am wondering if the website will be able to handle the amount of traffic that it will experience during the quota hunts. Also have they improved cell phone signal over in the Mount Eden area?

Recipe for Chaos?

If you know where your area is and you know you're in the right place then why would you need to worry about anybody else being in the right area. Other bases use ISportsman and they don't utilize party leaders at all. I'm sure Ft Knox can have success too. They'll be a few issues at first but it will eventually work itself out.

 

[Scoony]

It would be nice if they would not piece-meal out information like they have been doing. The newest message on telechecking deer would have been helpful last month when I telechecked my archery buck. I realize now that I made a wrong selection and will have to see if I can correct it somehow. I really don't see them having a lot of issues other then a few lost souls out in the training area. I do wish they could be more timely with posting new information.

For Telechek, you need to know which of the 3 counties you hunted - Meade, Hardin or Bullitt.
Be nice to have list to save time and stop all the guessing on county.
