$150 reward for stolen 14 pt. rack
Not mine. A guy checked his 14 pointer in and left his deer to be processed and caped out for mounting at our local meat processor.
Sometime on the 19th, someone sawed off the rack through the skull. Please fellows.......no matter who, where, why you take your deer for processing, etc., make sure you cape it out or make immediate arrangements for it to be caped out right then and right there.
I don't have the details yet of who shot this buck, but he learned a valuable lesson. It probably was a lifetime buck for the person, its a shame, just don't let it happen to you.

RE: $150 reward for stolen 14 pt. rack
I had a buddy that before he started hunting with us had a deer stolen. He tagged the deer and was picking up dogs and was about 50 yards away from his truck when a truck pulled up and took his deer. He was going to get it mounted and has yet to kill a buck as nice as that one. What will the guy say years from now, yeah son that is the buck I stole back in 89.

Some people just don't have any class ,and yes just how could he be proud of a rack he never took.I'm sure he wouldn't be able to appreciate that deer as a real trophy since he never shot it JERK'S that's all I got to say.
I know when I take my deer to the processor I alway's bring the rack home with me before I leave.Trophy or not .I will not leave it there overnight.

I can't even imagine something as stupid as stealing someone else's rack. [:@] What's the point? I'd rather have a 3x3 that I actually shot than someone else's monster.

RE: $150 reward for stolen 14 pt. rack
Some thing like that Just Burns me up.
What a stupid thing to do.
People just amase me some times.
Stealing a Deer Gesssh.
To me it just wouldn't be the same.
If I get a Big Buck I want it to be the one that I shot.
How else could I really brag about it LoL

RE: $150 reward for stolen 14 pt. rack
same thing happened to me 4 years ago, someone stole my cape out of the back of my truck at a gas station on the way to a taxidermist. I was in the gas station paying for my gas was in there maybe a minute or two. it was nice tall 12 point rack with a 23 1/4 inch spread id say a 150 or 160 class buck easy. I was so pissed not only did they take that rack but they took a 20 foot log chain and POS fishing pole i had back there too you know for those spur of the moment fishing adventures. makes me wish i had 12 inches of lift and 40 inch tires so noone can see what i have in the bed.

How in the world can they look at that rack with the same sense of accomplishment as the hunter that took the deer? What a loser, to steal someone else's deer and rack.
