Being professional writers maybe they did spend some time before the photo 'prettying' themselves up. Especially Brittany Boddington. It isn't unlikely she actually would take a hair brush with her and "brush-up" a bit before hand to look good for the photographs. I could probably find out if you like.

Not like us who are happy to be covered in mud, sweat, blood and who knows what else for photos.

As for the "chopper" thing, it is quite normal for most outfitters to chopper the hunters up to the hunting areas. A guy I know had small marine board huts made up so the chopper could drop right near the hunting areas, saving a lot of climbing time for hunting time. This fellow only did free range hunts and wouldn't do the chopper shooting thing.

Especially when the same guy told me about a whole bunch of ADA executives who shot right from the helicopter and then in their magazine posted about their hero hunts in NZ.

Does every answer to a post of a hunting story need to be a biting attack? I didn't read anything about walking up the mountain in the story, just the glassing and moving around the tops while hunting.

Lighten up abit.
