I had Air Craft landing lights on mine, 1,000,000 candle power, one on each
corner of the truck roof, but only used it for tracking at night.

hey dd, do you consider road hunting poaching, J/K, but i know theres a bunch of folks in our area that don't see anything wrong with it[:@], last year me and the wife are headed south on 431, you know where all the bridges are, the P.R. river bridge and all, well we go by one of the fields, and there is a sure nuff dandy 10/12pt standing at the back edge of one of those fields, we had just passed a little small truck that was turnin around in the median, i noticed he had his passenger side window down, its 38 deg., something didn't add up, told my wife he's fixin to bust that buck, she was in dis-belief, so i turn around pull in behind him, and guess what i see, a blue piece of what i'm assuming was a piece of round stock (yea right), he could not hide the gun quick enough, i told him what he was trying to do was highly illegal, and that the owner of the land would prosecute him, he got pretty smart with me and said "man i was just using my scope to check him out" i just said tell yourself whatever you got to believe, a few weeks later i'm 98% sure he was the clown that got arrested over off baily cove, and carl t jones roads, i know you remember the story.....shooting the deer outside the beauty shop, this guy was dumber than he looked

Keith, DD and I were just funning with each other! I would be the first one
to call it-in, if saw that onthe side of the road. I do walk logging roads in
season, in legal shooting hours.

DD and Reb, i know ya'll were joking, i've never met either of you and i know what kind of hunters ya'll are, the right kind, oh yea i sent waff 48 news a nice little letter because they called the yoyo that killed the deer by the beauty shop "A HUNTER", wow that bozo really helps our image with the non-hunting public[&o]

btw what would be the minimum candle power i should get, i need one that could start a fire in an emergency[:-][:-][:-][:-][:-]

If poaching was allow the answer under times is NO . But whentimes got tuff at the house and the food was getting low I will take the words of Hank Williams, JR to heart A country boy will survive. And I will put foot on the table. I do not intend to ask the goverment to take care of me or my family, as long as I am ableI will take care of my family. I do not condone poaching for profit but if some one is doing it to put food on table and they do it on my land I will turn my head and not see it. A good thing we have here in Kentucky is the food for the needed, where local processing place will take in and process deer to give to the needed. Lets us all agree we would do it for food if we needed it. But lets us hope and pray we do not need to.
