    Good luck with that

    My advise is to keep going to those spots regardless of other hunters. I often turn up at carparks with multiple cars and carry on and really do I see or bump into them.

    As long as you positively identify your target and they do no issues

    Thanks for the advice Hamish, I will take that on board.

    I understand your point there if the area you are in is large enough to support multiple hunting parties and ideally there is some form of planning if you do bump into eachother, unfortunately my time constraints/domestic responsibilities dont afford me the opportunity to get too far afield into these places very often. I know the areas I hunt quite well and even if you dont see the other hunters they are still in the area. I also know its not a case of first in best dressed or dibbs on a hunting spot but Id rather not risk ruining another persons hunting experience by trying to insert myself into an area I know already has hunters in it. Perhaps its needless courtesy that doesnt really benefit anyone and is only to my detriment but its just the way I generally do things.

    Happy Hunting

    I totally get where you are coming from. In the old days it was an unwritten rule that if you were parked up at a road end or area it was sort of your area to hunt, especially from the safety aspect. These days I have found a lot of this "respect" if you can call it that has gone, we have had people drive past our vehicle and cruise into the area we are going to hunt....real annoying. Good luck with your search.
