Why Nuke a thread?  I never understood that type of thinking, unless it was porn or talking about someones kids I just dont  see any legitimate reason..

isnt it the same as the Cancel culture ?. someone gets there feelings hurt or doesn't like something so it needs to be nuked or lock?

For the record I though guilds we’re lame before it was cool. 

Someone that doesn't like guides? No way!!!  

No... you were just average before it was cool. 

Everyone hates guides unless they are one or they hire one. Do you want a patch for your jacket? "Guide haters club" has a ring to it!!!

Game and fish thought they had problems with conflicts at water holes, just wait till guys start stealing or destroying cams to “help” enforce this ban. There will be violence. I see problems going way up.

The guides that depend on trail cams for success are generally the ones you hear from the most about this topic. This type of guide will soon disappear, and overall I think guiding in general will not be as “popular” when they are unable to gather interest with use of trail photos.

Yep, just as well speculate on what will be the next new invention that will not be "fair chase."

I think I mentioned before in this thread but this will really hurt the smaller and  less established guys. There are lots of guys that have 9 to 5's that rely heavily on trailcams because they don't have the time to scout. Most bigger outfits with established reputations and that have full time guys won't be hurt as much.. if at all. They'll just have to put a lot more time in the field scouting and that will cause prices to go up. I say most because there are a couple big very established outfits that rely a lot on trailcams and this will definitely hurt them. It'll depend a lot on species too. Elk hunts will go up. Coues hunts will go up. Muley hunts south of the ditch shouldn't really be effected. Antelope hunts won't go up. Of course that will all depend on the outfitter too. Some guys might spread rate increases across all their hunts and some will just raise rates on the hunts most effected. What ends up happening on the strip will be very interesting to see. It's an entirely different world up there. In the end, the outfitters some people want to see hurt and taken down a few notches by this, won't be hurt at all. The little guys that aren't part of the trailcam "problem" will be hurt and maybe put out of business. That's usually what happens with more government regulation.

By the way, everything I said above was reflected in the public comments at the last meeting. The owner of AZ Groundpounders and Greg Krough from Mogollon Outfitters both spoke in favor. Both big established outfits. Hunter Weems with Arizona Custom Hunts and Eddie Wiley with Southeast Arizona Outfitters spoke against. Great hunters but they're smaller outfits. Hunter used to be with A3 but is going on his own this year.
