RE: Caught a Poacher
Great job! I'm glad you have a game warden that seems to care about the landowners for a change. With any luck the poacher will catch a few years jail time for his stupidity. Keep us up to date on the developments of the case.

RE: Caught a Poacher
Md: I farm for a living and farm about 600 acres. And then I have about 1400 acres of pasture. Not all of this land is in good deer country. The area in question is 320 acres on one side of the road, 160 acres on the other side. And the there is another 160 1/2 mile to the south. . Stubble jumper we think alike Thanks

<font size=6>WOW</font id=size6> i mean wow.....pretty bold statement from someone that has absolutely nothing vested in Mod70's property. striper phil i can see you asking for permission for yourself to hunt a peice of land then when opening day comes you unload a truck full of your buddies. after all the land owner should mind his own business right?

RE: Caught a Poacher
Sorry nodose guess I asked for that. I Just don't like the 1984 thing. I think most of you are to young to fully understand what it is to get drafted and go to war for rights. may be this wasen't the best case but i just don't believe in people playing cop and turning in neighbors for any reason. How many of you know someone who does drugs of some kind DID YOU TURN them in. No why not its a lot worse crime than Poaching. No I don't sbreak the law and I don't sabuse others property. Before you slam someone walk a mile in his shoes!!!

MOD70, Great job!
FOOLPROOF?
Never underestimate the power of a fool!
What if the "Hokey Pokey" really is what it's all about?

RE: Caught a Poacher
just a thought, playing devils advocate here:
all mod saw was a deer on his property that had been shot and killed. mod didnt actually see the guy shoot the deer in his vehicle from the road with a .22, I have to admit that having the .22 on him is going to hurt his defense, unless he had another "legal" hunting rifle in his posession. and as far as him trespassing, it is possible that he shot the deer at another location and the deer ran onto mod's property and died. i know that if i had shoot a deer and it ran onto another persons property and died, i would feel that is was my obligation to retrieve the deer. i'll say that i would be angrier that someone left the deer to rot than seeing them on my property without permission.
and last but not least. why wasnt mod out hunting?

RE: Caught a Poacher
Hey Phil, there is a bunch of us on the forum that have military service, and I bet not one of us served to give a damm poacher the right to tresspass and illegally hunt. By the way, move in next to me and start the drug crap and you will be turned in quicker than you can walk a couple of feet in your own shoes.
