Fuzzy,
All behavior is the result of a cost, risks, benefits analysis. Your initial post suggests the guy cost too much, maybe risked too much (desparation shot? sheesh! Rule 4? Fair chase? I may have to start a seperate thread) and clearly benefited too little. Your subsequent post indicates that you have reached the same conclusion I have. Hunt well.
Runt of the Litter,
I have sacrificed several hunts for partners' kids. In four of five cases the rewards have been hugely greater than filling the tags. I must admit, too, that I spoiled more than my share of hunts as a kid and cannot claim to have rewarded my benefactors nearly as much as I have benefited. I will risk hunting with kids again, partly because of the rewards, partly because I owe and now can only pay forward.
edit: Ouch! How did that button get pushed? Sorry, Runt, what I wrote is true but badly misapplied, not at all responsive to your post.
