Natural selection and survival of the fittest Noah! This applies to all aspects of life... What you speak of does not just have to do with hog dogging and any other hunting for that matter. That is something that can be applied to a lot of different aspects of life. There will always be someone that knows more about something that does not want to share these "precious" thoughts, ideas, and ways of doing things; or for that matter places to do said things.
I have a hard time fighting the battle you speak of. I am the type of guy that wants to meet, greet, and join in the fun! My mom says I know no strangers. This is a problem when it comes to hunting anything. If you have a good spot that produces, you do not want to show someone in fear of them "back dooring" you... and for that matter taking away from what you could possibly procure. So I have trouble with the thin line that divides the ok from the not when it comes to "sharing" the fun and fortune of good spots, or anything for that matter.
This is why I network. I want to be able to meet likeminded and similar people. I want to be able to enjoy what I now love with other people that feel the same. I also try my hardest to spread the knowledge that I've gained in a short period of time, of how fast this privilege is being fought and taken away from us... and right out from under our noses.

You are blessed to be able to have so many things to catch that “release” from, and not only that, but to be able to physically do them as well. From the sounds of some of your stories, you have had a very exciting life, and it doesn't seem to be stopping any time soon. So keep on keepin' on brother!!!! Live, Learn, and Love... and in that order! Do work, make chit happen, and never stop moving forward! All other things will fall into place if you stay true to yourself and what you love.
I tell myself over and over not to worry about things too much, because in the end, you really don't have as much control over things as you would like to think. At a moment’s instance it could all be taken away and what would you be left with then....?
Enjoy and share what you have with others... IMO, like you stated, sharing an experience that you cherish with someone else, and seeing them realize what makes you do what you do is an awesome feeling! Matter of fact, helping anyone do anything that they find joy in makes me feel good. I try to do good for other people even if it does not benefit me, and that is a feeling that I love. If that means taking them hunting to one of my spots, then so be it... if that means helping them move, donating clothes, food, sharing stories, putting together an event, fixing a computer, or anything that you can think of really then I will do it if it makes someone else feel better about life and helps. For some reason I cherish that the most in this life and I do not know why. My friends do not understand it, my family does not understand it, and I do not expect anyone else to either. I’d give the shirt off my back to someone I don’t know if I knew they needed it more than I do. I do not really have the means to be able to do as much as I would like to for others now as I am the one that needs help… and this is the time that it shows who is really there, and who is not as well. So fight for what you believe in, of course, but do not forget about sharing it with the people that you love… and sometimes with a stranger. You never really know what you’re missing out on until it slaps you in the face!
