HuntOrBeHunted

Good luck everyone lots of orange the gunshot will be flying.

Yea I just came in from a few day hunt in the SZ I heard tons of shots. And I was on private land the shots were as close and the land border. It was pretty crazy. First time I seen dec in the woods was today. I throw in the white towel, lol maybe a last day bow hunt and thats it.

You need the right tag to shoot reguardless. So yea, if you happen to trip across a wounded deer and you don't have the tag you need to shoot it dont.

Last few days of the season is a WAR ZONE.. I'm home early dec came out after about 25 shots before 7:30 am today, ran the woods with their wheelers. Be super careful were orange everything lol.

How much time do you spend at the range?? I like to get out at least 2 times a month for a few hours of shooting. In the summer i'm out all the time. How bout you??

+1 I would be appealing it for another court date an going to get a copy of the regs.

Yea i'll be out there. Lucky for me ill be in a nice little blind/stand that was built at camp. Good luck everyone.

Very nice. Them BDC reticles are sweet.

Very nice. Camera to truck is allways a good few pictures lol.

LOL... Thats too funny. As far as big foot never heard of it dont believe it but would shoot it.

I try and hunt food sources first since the deer are eating to put on winter fat. I love late hunts cause most of the green leaves and brush is dead or gone and I can read sign a lot better. Goodluck.

Glad you think that wooffer and i'm even more glad to know thats not the case at all. How would you have handled it then???

Yes it would be. And unless it was a coincidence that they were ripping the woods apart then just happen to shoot a deer. Lol. At this point its funny to lisen to this guy try and make it sound right. Its like robbing a bank and saying they just wanted to borrow the money...

I did do something.. I left lol, im not a dec I just happen to observe a illegal hunt. Never said they shot from the truck and i'm not whining more less just talking about my experience. Don't like the thread or the way I worded it cool.. Beat it then.. Sounds like your whining did you get that buck 10 feet from the road you sound like your sticking up for the average poacher. But im sure if you seen this near your home it would be a different story.

Lol ok dude whatever you say. Show me a pic of a deer with a tag on it that you cant see... lol really. I'm not going to go back and forth i'm just saying what happen today and that there was no tag on the deer when it was loaded. And that in its self makes it a illegal hunt.. Period.

Close enough to see the deer clear as day, i'm very sure I wouldn't miss a big ol green tag hanging.

Church im thinking that was the last thing on there mind. Maybe a beer or something...

Once you get to the camp or vehicle, attach the tag to the deer or bear immediately. And thats the one thing I know for sure they didnt do.. So yea it's a illegal hunt end of convo. And K burke. I was beat form a long week at work and I just didn't want to deal with waiting a hour for them to come by. Chalk it up as a loss for every hunter that goes by the rules. { Whats new }

Tagging, Transporting and Reporting Deer and bear are in legal possession only when tagged with the appropriate portion of the big game license, deer management permit or other license provided for that purpose. Tagging Here's what you must do immediately upon killing a deer or bear: Fill in all information on the carcass tag and report tag with ink that won't erase. Detach the carcass tag from the report tag. Once filled in, the tag may not be altered. Keep the report tag, you will need it when you report your deer or bear. The month and date must also be cut or marked in ink on the margin of the carcass tag. You do not need to attach the tag to the carcass while it is being dragged or physically carried from the place of kill to a camp or point where transportation is available. Once you get to the camp or vehicle, attach the tag to the deer or bear immediately. Keep the tag attached to the carcass until it is cut up and prepared for consumption. You may continue to assist other hunters after you have filled all of your tags, as long as you do not shoot or attempt to shoot a deer. "Being afield with slugs after filling your big game tags is illegal; carrying a centerfire rifle may be considered evidence of attempting to shoot deer."

If these guys were playing by the rules then santa is really going to come down my chimney. Like I said in my post they shot the deer loaded it up and took off I watched it. If there were a DEC right there they would have nailed them without a doubt they never tagged the deer they threw it in and booked. I don't know anyone that shoots a deer, dam near runs out of the woods with it throws it in the truck wthout being tagged and books.... Its allready an illegal hunt not much more needs to be said.. There pirates not hunters!! And i'm not meaning to sound like a A$$ its just people like that are the reason why us real hunters get bad reps. And around were I hunt you hear more about poching and people hunting on land thats not theres than anything.

So I went into work yesterday just for the extra money even though it was second to last day of gun. I get out rush to get my stuff on, I get to the woods and notice a blood trail literally 10 feet from the road.. { Didnt think much of it }. So I was in the woods about an hour ago and I heard 4 wheelers pounding around. I was like ok, maybe there riding maybe there just leaving or maybe they will push the deer to me. Well after about a half hour of this guy tearing the woods up I hear punding in the brush and here comes a doe. A very small doe and it was on the run I didnt even think about shooting it. 2 minutes later BOOM.. I'm thinking no way did someone just shoot that little doe. I got up to leave a tad bit pi$$ed that my last day wash a wash out. As i'm walking out I see a guy, no tags but had a shotgun. So i'm starting to put 2 and 2 together to realize they were driving deer.. Ok. Well I get near the road and see a red suv sitting there guy in it rifle in the front and here comes these clowns with there little bambi deer didn't tag it shot the first one they seen loaded it up and took off. Thats 2 deer in 2 days. To me thats poaching.. Clearly. And no I didn't call the dec at this point in time I just wanted to get home. I'll go late bow and avoid the crazy gun "hunters".. { And no im not saying all gun hunters are crazy but some of them just want to a easy hunt }.. To me thats not hunting.

Nice deer right there.

I have heard of putting it in a water bleach mix and let it sit for a while. Never tried it though.

Moonshiners may be fake. But I think gold rush is just a real life show. Them boys are out there working hard for there keep. And ants, yes he took his own life after getting caught by the law again. He was faceing a long term prison sentence. Youtube does have a couple really old clips of popcorn there pretty awsome.
