SO long as they do it legally not a thing anyone can or should do/say to them. They might hunt to feed their family. I know of a group of amish who hunt turkey run during the reduction hunts. They are there for as many deer as legally possible. Lots of mouths to feed. I say good for them! I will start by saying that have never met Don and that I agree with some of his thoughts. Not all of Don's nieghbors are poachers. I guess that there was a family that that tended to kill as many deer as they could in the neighborhood, but they are gone now. Don is a known trouble maker with his nieghbors and tends to think he owns every deer that ever touched his property. Not a nice man with a huge ego. In 20 years the whole neighborhood will be covered in houses anyway.

I shot a buck this year far back (ie right through the stomach entrance wound) as he was steeply quartering away. I hit him with a Grim Reaper 2 inch head but I am sure a slick trick would have yielded the same result. Very little to no blood on the ground as the arrow lodged in the off shoulder/leg bone. BUT I shot right through the heart and saw him drop from my stand. Total distance traveled after shot was 15 yards. I have had the similar thing happen though and ONLY nip one lung, makes for a tough and long track job. Like you mentioned, it is often better if the head remains in the deer to facilitate more blood loss. Yeah if quartering....and that low of stand angle...we could be talking an arrow that went in high or low and simply nipped one lung (either far or entrance one) deflected forward and hit off shoulder. Although the reason why I don't suspect this is every deer I've ever tracked or heard had a hit where penetration went and stop on off shoulder dies rather quickly due to the arrow just ripping everything inside.

they can go a long way on one lung. I hate the quartering toward angle shot, very easy to miss one lung and track a long ways.
I lost a couple this way and it always makes me sick to even think about it. Hope you find her! Good for trying all options...

how did the blood look? Bright red? Dark red? bubbles? food material? this will tell you a lot of what you need to know...

The more I ready crap like this the more I want to go trapping.
Don is a butt chapped whiner and obviously lacking at math skills.

best to keep your mouth shut about public land bucks, no check station photos either. =)

just leave them outside to get rained on, then reuse them. I keep mine for about 5 uses then rinse outside.

why??
Besides being illegal, I want to see their numbers take off around here. Nice to have a natural predator back in these woods.

I have heard that there will very likely be a season in 2017
It will begin as a limited quota and only certain counties open like the otter this year.
