My 10 pointer got poached Friday nite
I guess i should say this right away, i dont mean this deer as mine in a selfish way. i just say it becauase i watched him grow all summer and i just kinda refer to himas my ten pointer. i mean, i dont care if he got shot legally. its just when the following happened is when i get mad. I just got off the phone with my one of my friends that hunts close to our house and i asked him if they had seen the 10 point or who got him. He told me that somebody was out friday nite driving their truck on a gravel road when he allegedly hit the big 10 pointer and an 8 pointer with a drop tine at the same time. The chances of both of them getting hit at the same exact time on a 35 MPH gravel road is like winning the lottery. Rumor has it the warden is investigating. i hope he gets these idiots. i take offense to any deer being poached but when its a magnificent creature that you watch all summer hoping you or somebody you know gets him, its a different story. i will update when i find out more.

yes...in tennessee it is indeed very illegal and probably the most practiced hunting method in our area awful anuff. i wished they would employ more game wardens so there would be anuff to patrol the areas that are hot with road hunters.
