You sure aren't much of a hunter if you never bothered to pick up a shed antler. I didn't know hunting sheds or picking up skulls was illegal. would you care to cite the section of the code that makes hunting shed a violation?

Your problem is that you are applying too much common sense which completely escapes those that support ARs. No breeder of any animal would would kill off its best males and allow lesser animals to do the breeding. Even Dr. kroll admits that culling bucks before 3.5 yrs. is a bad idea, but in PA we cull our best buck at 1.5 and continue to cull the best buck in each succeeding age class.

The antlers on a dead deer are not sheds, and are against the law to be taken from the woods. Trying to kick them off is an attempt at an illegal act. Ask RSB if you dare broach this subject with him.

I have no need to ask RSB. Just cite the section of the regs that state it is illegal to pick up the skull or sheds of a deer other than a roadkill.

The digest is not the complete wildlife code, and ignorance of the law is not a defense.

I genrally hunt in 2A,2B,and 2d and hunt all three seasons,but my future plan is to quit hunting in this state next year and start hunting a lease I have aquired in Ohio.

I didn't make any reference to the Hunting Digest and I have a complete copy of the wildlife code, do you?

So you've got a copy of the game code. Now we're really impressed

I think Gregs point was that if you knew it was illegal to try to kick the antlers off a dead buck, why did you try?

livbucks

I believe it is illegal to remove any antlers,except sheds, from the woods without a permit, paid at $10 per point.
I welcome the truth and if I am mistaken, so be it.

You thought Kroll said that the spike bucks were late born when in fact you didn't have a clue. Now ,even though I have the code, I will freely admit that I did not try to find the section that states it is illegal to kick a dead deer in the head or to beat a dead horse. If you would care to cite the chapter and verse I would certainly appreciate that info.
