  4. IF YOU’VE EVER DOUBTED A WHITETAIL’S WILL TO SURVIVE, THIS STORY WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING Posted by Colton Bailey February 24, 2017 One of the coolest images you have ever seen tells a powerful story of endurance and the drive to live. Hunt whitetail deer long enough and you will find out that these animals have a drive to survive like no other. Year in and year out, you hear of crazy stories of how a deer will survive a shot or injury that seems almost impossible to overcome. You can track a deer for miles and see insane amounts of blood to only come up with nothing. But this story is one for the books—a true testament to what a woodland warrior the American whitetail is. After the image began to surface on social media, we were able to get in contact with Robert Stegall, the current owner of this awesome piece. The story dates back to 30 years ago, when a hunter by the name of Jackie Stegall was bow hunting some private land in Anson County, North Carolina, and a four-point buck showed itself. According to Robert, Jackie’s son, “Dad said that the deer acted as normal and only realized that it had been shot before once he started to cape it out.” Seeing a symmetrical rack with no strange antler growth or limp of any kind, Jackie had no idea of what he was about to find. This deer looked as natural and healthy as they came. Once caped, he found something that is pretty incredible and is now catching a lot of attention. An arrow that had been lodged in this buck’s rib cage from previous years was still there, but with some magnificent character. Robert Stegall RECOMMENDED FOR YOU This Girl’s Bowfishing Technique is Dynamite Q&A: Niki Tilley Fills us in on Her 2017 Turkey Grand Slam Listen and be Amazed at These Wildlife Calls From a Youngster's Natural Voice The warrior instinct of a whitetail kicked in, and the bones began to grow and form around the arrow, resulting in what looks like a natural splint around the broken arrow. Robert claims it was a Bear Razorhead. As if the story couldn’t get any cooler, Jackie just handed down the magnificent whitetail show piece to his son for his 30th birthday. Robert had been wanting the piece of art for a while now, and he was pleasantly pleased to be gifted one of the coolest birthday presents he has ever gotten from his father (and, in our opinion, one of the coolest presents of all time). Robert Stegall As a die hard bow hunter with great respect for the animal that a whitetail is, I can truly say this is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. What an awesome piece to add to his hunting room, and one more slice of evidence to show that the whitetail is a true woodland warrior.
  5. SAD STORY IN OHIO ers will be destroyed. OHIO DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES BOWLING GREEN — The ringleader of a large-scale wildlife poaching operation is going to prison. Robert Mandon Freeworth, 37, of Grand Rapids, Ohio, has been sentenced to four years in prison by Wood County Common Pleas Judge Reeve Kelsey for a pattern of corrupt activity that included shooting deer at night, shooting deer out of season, hunting without permission, improperly handling a firearm in a motor vehicle, the illegal sale of venison, tampering with records, and additional wildlife violations. Freeworth, who pleaded guilty in December, was also ordered to pay $5,513.03 in restitution for deer he killed illegally, and forfeit 51 items that were seized in a March, 2016, raid by officers of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Wildlife. Those forfeited items included two rifles, a muzzleloader, a sport utility vehicle, numerous trophy deer mounts, deer parts, and venison. As part of the plea agreement for Monday’s sentencing, Freeworth will also lose his hunting privileges for 18 years, commencing with his release from jail. Although Freeworth’s case was not one of the largest deer poaching operations the state has seen, his prison sentence was not the norm but came about because of the number of felonies that involved the possession of a firearm, according to a wildlife officer close to the case. Gwen Howe-Gebers, a former assistant Wood County prosecutor who worked the case, said Freeworth broke all the rules: hunting on other people’s property without permission, jacklighting, selling venison, and having other people register tags in their names after he was over his limit. “Those who are avid hunters follow the rules as set out by ODNR,” Ms. Howe-Gebers said. “Mr. Freeworth stretched those rules, violated those rules all to benefit himself.” She said his crimes were widespread and deserving of prison time. “There has to be some punishment to say to the hunters, these rules are there for a reason, and it’s so that everyone can enjoy the sport of hunting,” she said. “It’s people like Mr. Freeworth who then ruin it for everyone else.” Freeworth was nabbed during Operation North Coast, a wide-ranging investigation in the northern tier of Ohio that eventually resulted in charges being filed against more than 40 people in 10 Ohio counties. The investigation, which included work by undercover officers, came about as the result of complaints made to the Division of Wildlife by landowners, sportsmen, and concerned citizens regarding illegal hunting and the sales of wildlife. Ron Ollis, special operations supervisor with the ODNR Division of Wildlife, said the investigation involved multiple entities and jurisdictions. “We received numerous complaints on Mr. Freeworth, with tips from different avenues, and we were able to put an investigation in place and document many violations,” he said. “It was very clear this was an enterprise involving a number of people and the widespread illegal taking of deer and the selling of venison.” In March of 2016, more than 45 state wildlife officers and investigators executed search warrants and conducted interviews with dozens of subjects across the Lake Erie corridor. There were 22 individuals from the Toledo area originally charged in the case, for violations ranging from the illegal sale and purchase of wildlife, failure to maintain proper taxidermy records, receiving stolen property, felony sale of sportfish, theft by deception, and the illegal use of the supplemental nutrition assistance program. At the request of defense attorney Pete Rost, the court granted Freeworth permission to delay reporting to jail to begin serving his sentence for two weeks, so he could be with an ill family member. Under the terms of the plea agreement, Freeworth must serve at least two years of his sentence, and would be eligible for release at that point, but his release would have to be approved by the court. A source close to the Freeworth case confirmed that any venison seized during the raid would be donated to area food pantries, if it had been commercially processed and cared for before the seizure. Some of the trophy mounts will be used by park districts and other entities for educational purposes, while others will be destroyed. The Operation North Coast investigation also uncovered a scam perpetrated by two local individuals during a contest in the spring of 2016 sponsored by the Maumee Tackle bait shop. The rules required that all fish entered in the contest must be caught in the Maumee River, between Orleans Park and Jerome Road, with cash prizes going to the teams weighing in the heaviest five-fish catches. In the course of the Operation North Coast investigation, wildlife officers found that Matthew Langlois of Waterville and Lawrence Turner of Toledo took fish they had caught in Lake Erie and entered them in the Maumee Tackle contest, and claimed one of the top prizes in the event. They were charged with theft by deception, but pleaded no contest to a reduced charge and were found guilty. The pair were ordered to pay back the $375 in prize money they had fraudulently claimed, and fined $250 each plus court costs. They were also forbidden from entering any tournaments on the river for a period of three years, and ordered not to have any contact with Maumee Tackle for that same time frame. They had 30-day jail sentences suspended and will serve probation for the next three years. Most of those charged in the original northwest Ohio phase of the case worked out plea deals or were found guilty, and paid fines, restitution, and court costs amounting to $21,591.11. Their cases went through eight different jurisdictions — Henry County, Wood County, and Lucas County, plus Sylvania, Toledo, Bowling Green, Napoleon, and Maumee municipal courts. The cases involving the Cleveland area suspects are still under investigation, or in the sentencing phase, a source with the Ohio Division of Wildlife said Thursday.

  6. New For 2017 | Vortex & Hornady Bullet-Cam Posted by Vortex Optics I SAW THIS AND AND THOUGHT I SHOULD SHARE IT
  7. What exactly is B.S. ? Is it that there was a Holocaust or that the Europeans opened up their countries to an influx of refugees who still appear to live in the 17th century with their customs and way of life . Please explain more clearly who it offends and why . also remember this was an article written by a Spanish journalist about his country Spain.
  8. I read this and it seems so true !!! What died at Auschwitz? Most would say that the death camps of Nazi Germany resulted in the deaths of six million Jews. That answer would not be wrong. But in the context of modern society, Spanish writer Sebastian Velar Rodriguez published a different take – one that cannot be overlooked. If you agree with Rodriguez’ perspective, please Like and Share. I walked down the streets in Barcelona and suddenly discovered a terrible truth – Europe died in Auschwitz . . . We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims. In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, talent. We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world. The contribution of these people is felt in all areas of life: science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world. These are the people we burned. And under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty, due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride. They have blown up our trains and turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world, drowning in filth and crime. Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of their naive hosts. And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition. We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs. What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe. Recently, the UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it ‘offends’ the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. It is not removed as yet. However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving in to it. It is now approximately seventy years after the Second World War in Europe ended. Iran, among others, are claiming the Holocaust to be “a myth.” How many years will it be before the attack on the World Trade Center “NEVER HAPPENED” because it offends some Muslim in the United States

  12. GALLATIN, Tenn. — All that's left for a 27-year-old Tennessee man to claim the official world record for a whitetail deer is the certification from the Boone and Crockett Club. Stephen Tucker of Gallatin killed the trophy buck with a muzzleloader in November in rural Sumner County, but a 60-day drying-out period had to take place to allow for possible shrinkage of the antlers. That period ended Monday, and a Boone and Crockett panel of four judges measured the 47-point rack, giving the deer a score of 312⅜. That is larger than the non-typical current net world record of 307⅝ from that Tony Lovstuen in Albia, Iowa, killed in 2003. That deer had 38 points. Potential world-record deer antlers could be worth $100,000 Official certification won’t take place until the Boone and Crockett awards banquet in 2019. "I just tried not to think about whether it was the world record or not during the drying out period," Tucker said. "The last week was probably the worst part of the whole time. I didn't want to get myself real worked up about it because I didn't want to be let down if it wasn't the record. I just kept telling myself, 'It's going to be what it's going to be.' " “I didn't want to get myself real worked up about it because I didn't want to be let down if it wasn't the record.” Stephen Tucker, Gallatin, Tenn. Tucker said he killed the deer on a farm his family has leased for 40 years. Deer racks are measured from several angles at the farthest points using the official Boone and Crockett scoring method. A non-typical rack is asymmetrical and does not have the same number of points on each side like a typical rack. The measurement took place at the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency and Tucker was allowed to watch. It took nearly four hours to complete. "I figured it would take them a pretty good while to measure is," Tucker said. "The waiting wasn't too bad until they walked out of the room to go tally it up. That's when I realized it was close. We were about to find something out for sure." Dale Grandstaff, captain of the agency's District 21 and also a Boone and Crockett judge, never expected to measure a rack as large as Tucker's deer. "I never thought I would ever see this in Tennessee," Grandstaff said. "Actually, I never thought I would see one over 300 inches." Tennessee hunter bags state, possible world-record, deer Grandstaff said he would notify Boone and Crockett of the pending world record score later Monday. Tucker then will be invited to the Boone and Crockett awards banquet in spring 2019, where a panel of two judges will re-score the antlers, Grandstaff said. The date and site for the awards banquet has not been set yet. The antlers from a potential world-record whitetail deer killed on Nov. 7, 2016, in Tennessee could be worth $100,000. (Photo: Courtesy of Stephen Tucker) Also Monday, the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency declared the deer a new state record. It beat the record that Dave Wachtel set in 2000 in Sumner County; his deer grossed 256 pounds and netted 244⅜. Grandstaff scored the antlers the day Tucker killed the deer and said he was very conservative with his measurements at that time. "I knew there were places that it would possibly gain with this measurement because I was so conservative with it in November," Grandstaff said. "I did that so that nobody would get their feelings hurt if it didn't make it. "It did shrink a little bit here and there, but the thing that was amazing to me was that we as a group put our minds together and scored it. And my deductions from the typical frame and the deductions from the typical frame today were exactly the same at 4⅞ as they were for that first measurement." Tucker’s deer weighed about 150 pounds and was estimated to be 3½ years old. He shot the deer from about 40 yards away. Tucker said he had the deer processed and plans to eat its meat. Tucker said he has not yet decided what he will do with the antlers, which could be worth more than $100,000. You won't believe the rack on this record buck "I'm just going to go with the flow," Tucker said. "To be honest, I was waiting for this (score) before I put a lot of thought into it. ... "All the phone calls and stuff had slowed down quite a bit in the last couple of weeks. I'm sure it will pick back up again after this," he said. Tucker said he will likely have a replica of the antlers made that could be put on display. Follow Mike Organ on Twitter: @MikeOrganWriter
