    D-16 Poaching Help Requested

    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...

    2nd & 3rd D16 weekend (bow, hit, lion) what would you do? + Poll

    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!

    D-16 Poaching Help Requested

    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...

    D-16 Poaching Help Requested

    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...

    D-16 Poaching Help Requested

    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.

    D-16 Poaching Help Requested

    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.

    D-16 Poaching Help Requested

    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...

    Mountain Quail

    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...

    Ressies are out guys

    I haven’t got one on the opener for the 12 years I’ve been trying, 48 years is 4x that! Maybe next year I’ll skip it. Who actually gets drawn opening day? Maybe they should do a cross match by political party and see what turns up? Maybe you had to donate at least $500 to democrats or something...
