Which part? The guy int he pick or those assuming that he is a no good poacher becasue he is out there?

All of it!

I'll be honest, I do not wear a back tag most of the time. If only because I have no intention of punching rain holes in my gear. I carry mine in a breast pocket usually. But smoking and wielding an implement at the same time does seem to detract from the seriousness of the pursuit, irrespective of what he may be after. Maybe he was just building muscle for a future season, hefting the bow about for an afternoon?

Its LJC doing research . You guys don't know anything , jeesh

This reminds me of the spotlighting threads. Anyone that spotlights is a no good poacher according to many on this site.

I have my backtag in the window of my backpack. If i ever get a ticket for that I'll pay it with no argument. I also like to take a ride and spotlight when down at camp. Im a monster!

[stoneam2006]

I also will admit to not having "back tag" but more of "backpack tag". Can judge a book by the cover maybe he is a good guy out for a stroll carrying a xbow instead of what most others would chose checking out his desired spot for this weekend

His Mama thinks he's special

[LET EM GROW]

Or like this Tool....

This guy wounded a buck and blood tracked him with a few of his pals, into one of our sanctuaries. then lost the buck, and or just gave up... Got to love it..   

 

Maybe someone here knows if him.. 

Yes the group of guys were approached, and no, zero calls were made to the DEC.. yet..

 

Oh and the date is off, Pic from 2nd Weekend of last month

I'm sure the Mama of the guy with the crossbow thinks he's special....So did Charles Manson's Mother.

Also, perhaps he attended SPECIAL CLASS in school.

I admit he looks kind of like a dork, but unfortunately, not everybody is as ruggedly handsome as Wooly and me....

That dude definitely looks weird lol. Anyway, sometimes I carry my crossbow when checking cams when it was turkey season. Also, never know if a yote, bobcat, fox, etc. pops out as well during open season. Other times I carry a shotgun.

I definitely didn't want to confront this guy . A while after he ducked into the wooded area , I spotted something about 100 yards south of me . I could see orange on the right and blue on the left and thought maybe he or someone else had left some gear out there . Then I saw some movement and the guy got up off the ground . He had been laying on his back . He had to be one weird dude !

Can't be. He won't travel 100 miles to his own land (  ), much less the what, 450 miles from NYC to WNY.

 

The poor guy in those pics is clearly a rookie! He's not toting a cell phone and texting every 5 feet. 

[NonTypical]

I always carry my back tag in my pocket. Unfortunately this year on opening day, I got a ticket for that.

When I enlarged the photo I see this gun has a bolt loaded while hanging over his back.

Eddie His Shirt says it all LOL. I did notice his bow is not cocked, not shooting much like that. Can you speak to the land owner? or wait by truck for him and ask him? Don't do it by yourself in the woods.

[Curmudgeon]

I would rather have that unknown guy in orange wandering around my neighborhood than some of the people I know, who happen to wear very correct and in-style hunting uniforms.

[Merlot]

He got lost on his way to the donut shoppe..

That guy needs to have DEC called on him.

He was given a warning, that being his last warning. We haven't had the best of luck with DEC on certain issues across our hill,(poachers and much other illegal activities) that being the main reason the call was not made..

My apologies Eddie.  I was just out for a nice walk in the woods and got tired.

Man, u guys are gonna hate me....I have a xbow, I spot light all the time, and my mom thinks I'm special ! But, I'm only a 1/3 of the hunter that guy is....( get it !hehehe ) From here on out, I'll understand if I get alot less "likes".

[BuckThornBooners]
