DSGB Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 On my lunch break, I took a ride to the WMA right up the road to check the kill sheet. There has been only one deer killed (only one checked out, anyway) and it was a doe, according to the sheet. There was blood all over the sheet and the table, mostly hand and finger prints. The worse part about it was that the gut pile was right next to the check station, no more than 10-15 feet! How lazy can you be? It is in an open field no bigger than a half acre, the surrounding area is woods. They could have AT LEAST drug it inside the woodline. I'm sitting here wondering if the one guy that checked out a deer was stupid enough to leave the gut pile and bloody hand prints everywhere, or if whoever did do it just decided they weren't gonna check the deer out. Either way, it's still very sad that hunters would do this sort of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the gut pile is from poachers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSGB Posted September 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Re: Disgusting That may be the case, but it wouldn't make sense for a poacher to gut the deer (pretty small judging by the size of the entrails) right there by the road. The check station is less than 50 feet from the paved road. They also left very bloody hand and finger prints all over the kill sheet.

Turkeygirl Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Re: Disgusting Definitely not a good way to show non-hunters what hunters truly are.... Some people don't think and some people don't know how to think,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowJoe Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Re: Disgusting I personally don't understand what crime was committed. Yeah it might be a little tacky but how many non hunters are gonna see it before tonight because I can almost guarantee that gut pile won't be there tomorrow. And how many non hunters and anti's are gonna see that check out sheet? Geez, when there are so many more things to concern yourself with this ranks pretty low on my list. It's called hunting and it's not pretty afterwards. Foxes, coyotes or raccoons will eat it before the day is over. It's what they do.

johnf Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Re: Disgusting Sounds to me like some young or inexperienced hunters who probibly just don't know any better. I would like to hope people would do something like that on purpose if they knew better. I might get together with the local game and fish guy and make a visit to the shooter and nicely explain why that's not something to be done.

HuntnMa Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Re: Disgusting that is disgusting........the one place i hunt , you have to take the game out of the WMA to clean it, the other, the gut pile is 3/10th of a mile away and you can still smell it from time to time....the public's perception counts for more than most know or care.....it's ashame.

TexasDeerHunter Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Re: Disgusting Unfortunately not all people who hunt are ethical or care about the general publics perception of our hunting heritage. But all people who hunt are not hunters, a true hunter has a little more respect for the animal, the outdoors, other hunters, and does not blatantly try to offend others who do not share in our hunting tradition. It is a shame that person did not put forth a little more effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
