It literally makes me sick to my stomach. What a prime example of greed and stupidity! Not only do you organize and plan to poach, but then you head out with spotlights and rifles during archery season and then take the time to pose and photograph the poached deer. Oh and then don’t forget to send your story and pictures to Eastmans and enter them into BIA and Pope and Young.

Justice has been served. This had got to be one of the most impactful poaching cases in the state. I’m surprised it hasn’t got much coverage outside of online forms. Good article in the AES magazine. Fact is that these are only the animals he got caught with and/or admitted to. Who knows how many others. It’d be interesting if Easton’s did a story on this....

I hope you are not insinuating I stole your cameras ! I saw your cams on lots of tanks . I laughed when you started locking them . Are you the one that was putting electrical tape over my cameras ? Like I said I hope they catch who ever did it too . I wasted a lot of time looking for that bull after he was poached . Question do you have a blue side by side ? You
No, no, and no. I don’t mess with other people’s property. Just how I was raised. I fully support the AZG&F and am hopeful they will solve this one. It’s tough to see this kind of crap happening in the area. Never had these problems 20 or even 10 years ago. Recently poaching, theft, criminal damage, tire spikes in road, and on and on. There’s a few law abiding citizens who’ve had it.

Oh boy...... ya the plot thickens. Truth is we’ll hopefully find out soon. Who killed the bull and who spent the entire summer stealing other peoples trail cams because of the bull. Obsessed over the bull? He was nice and I’d have loved to have a crack at him. I’m more concerned about catching a scum bag. People like that don’t belong in the woods.

Now there’s where you’ve got it wrong!

That’s so cool!

This is awesome! Amazing job! Took my dad out last year in the champ hunt. I couldn’t get him to see through the scope! This contraption might just be the ticket. That’s amazing. Congratulations!

9 hours ago, NOTAGS said:I am amazed at how a post to alert the hunting public to a poaching turns into a crap fest on scores, etc. on this forum. Who cares what the freakin score is, someone shot a quality bull and left it.
Chris, was that not your point in posting?
Yes sir! That was EXACTLY the point!

Two separate issues as far as I’m concerned. The first step is finding the poacher. As far as I’m concerned, we all have a duty to report out on what we know, if anything, to make sure people like this are called out. From there we can argue and fight for the proper punishment. Most of these guys, it’s not their first rodeo. Making an example would be great!

I guess we’ll find out when those horns go to auction.

He’s well over 400. Beams are 60+. I initially had him at 405 and underbid.

2021 Rut Activity
in Elk Hunting
Posted · Report reply
I was fortunate enough to spend almost the entire month of September in the woods in 4b and 3C. I’m not sure I ever experienced an overall stronger rut in the over 30 years I’ve hunted elk. There were peaks and valleys through the month but overall it was just solid. The craziest rutting activity I observed was from 9-7 to 9-14 or so. I had multiple bulls broken up by opening day from fighting. Things slowed down after that first week for a few days and then ramped up again. I got greedy and came home empty but it was worth the price of admission.
