I was talking 1 lion. I’ve never even hear d of 7 together, 3 being the most. That is pretty much like a horror movie. I’m glad you’re ok!

If you’ve got a headlamp on the emerald glow of a lions eyes are visible a long way off. I saw a lion at night a few years ago, and it was actually comforting to know that as long as you keep looking at those eyes and he keeps looking at you, you always know where he is. And that’s assuming...

I think I’ve shot 5+ deer at least with copper. I have noticed that Barnes doesn’t tend to leave A blood trail with a lung shot. and it does leave a small hole coming and going. I generally use a 7mm-08 or 270 size gun in CA. But the federal Premium trophy copper 165s out of my 30-06 I’ve used...

Nothing new. I’ve done what I can with it. I’d bet someone who’s seen the picture knows him. Maybe he’s seen it? My hope is that if nothing else comes of it that he won’t do it again. And for others that are tempted, all I can say is that there are cameras on pretty much every private property...

I feel for you archery hunters. I strongly prefer the company of that gun in lion country. Gave up bow hunting pretty much right after I started. And too many cats were the main reason. Good work on it though. It’s a tough break!

I did think about that. that is why I waited several days. I could have posted it on Monday. There is also a risk that the longer you wait, the harder it gets to put other things together. For instance I also checked all the area butcher shops for the deer and they may have already been there...

No way to get to public except a long way through private

This guy got lucky in a lot of respects - usually that owner is there on the weekend or I am and neither of us were around

It looks like it. He might have shot it up hill next to this property on an adjacent owners property who is old and absentee but dragged it down into this property. Or there is a steep ravine with brush in it where the guts could have been dumped. Either way it’s poaching. I didn’t have time to...

There is also another option if you prefer not to be identified - Cal Tip poaching hotline 1 (888) 334-2258. You can remain anonymous and possibly be awarded $$ for a conviction...

I will ask the owners and get back to you. Thanks!

That’s what I’m trying to do with the forums - I sure hope so.

Let me ask the owner how many details he wants to give out and I’ll get back to you. Thanks

Private on road shoulder

Private on both sides of the property - landlocked public 500 yards behind, very thick brush. The truck wasn’t there long enough to get to public and back

It’s possible that he saw the buck on the driveway and just tracked it into the property further. That’s actually worse from that family’s safety perspective.

It was a game camera on the driveway inside the fence. I’ve worked with a lot of the folks around me to install either game cameras or other security cameras primarily due to some recent break-ins in the area. I honestly never thought we’d get a poacher In a situation that bold.

I’m posting this on behalf of a good friend and a neighbor in northern D-16 who had a deer poached off his property mid-morning Saturday November 2nd. The property owner requested I not put too many location details for security reasons. But this looks like a stone cold poaching possibly from...

The main issue is trying to find them in an area that is not choked with brush that has clear shooting lanes. The disappear easily in heavy cover. Also the have a penchant for 45 degree hillsides. But in May they ring the ridge around my cabin and you can hear their mating calls all day long...

I got selected for the migratory upland bird survey, doves and bandtails etc.
