A new or green hunter should not hesitate to ask questions or share experiences they are trying to understand. Most experienced hunters understand the best way to create ethical hunters is to help or guide a rookie in the right direction. Personally I have also seen that poor guidance/example from an “experienced hunter” can have a huge negative impact. Most learn from the example given by others and often follow those they assume are experienced.
I have no issue with someone making a rookie mistake or even asking dumb questions because I have been there. With some styles of hunting and species I am still learning myself.
There is a big difference between a rookie seeking help and someone claiming to be highly experienced giving a poor example.
