I found this funny. The worst thing that could happen for the friend is one day there are elk there.
that's why it's impossible to convince him it's bad hunting.
he's been hunting since legal age, for around 16 years or something. only bull elk hunting. he's put down three just by generally hiking in and out of the the same general area and sitting the same general parks and meadows for that entire time. the concept of glassing was odd to him when i went mule deer hunting with him once. his binoculars were nearly useless too.
so, i guess in his mind those bulls were what he considered successful hunting.
IMO that's about what you'd be able to predict for any person who sits the same spot every year for 1.5 decades... i just call it statistics
