I stopped deer hunting because of all the doofus's in the woods blowing stray bullets everywhere and I wouldn't expect the gun shows to have a much higher level of patrons.

It's easy to understand why you gave up hunting in that environment. I gave it up years ago just because. I have a few hanging on the wall that I'm proud of so it was time to do something else.
It's different here though because we hunt on private land. I've had very little problem with trespassers and I know what is happening on this and surrounding places.
The reason I chimed in on your post though was to tell about something I read years ago, I think in "The Deer Hunters Bible". Wherever it was, they told a true story about a city boy that was hunting on public land where they had to come out through a checkpoint. When the city boy stopped and was asked if he had success he excitedly and proudly proclaimed that he had bagged a really nice deer. The warden asked to see it and the city boy, with a huge smile on his face threw back a canvas in his trailer and underneath was a mule.
