That sucks

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #4 on:** November 18, 2014, 10:32:51 PM »

I can't believe there are people that will take animals that they did not kill. You know some low life is showing pic's of that buck to his buddies and telling some great hunting story about how he killed it

Lotta crap down there! A guy I know was out hunting with his wife this year in the same unit. They came back to camp to find someone dumped oil and gas on there coolers, tent and gear and set fire to it!

They were camped on NF.

Any chance it wasn't a bear that ran off w/his head/meat?

MADMAX · « **Reply #8 on:** November 19, 2014, 04:41:03 AM »

damm thats low, when I pack, first thing out is the head and tag
hide it or lock it up and the go for the rest.

huntnnw · « **Reply #9 on:** November 19, 2014, 05:14:02 AM »

ID you would be ticketed if you did that

From what I have read on fb with someone closer to the story the guy had packed it all out and was camped near the river had the antlers up in the tree. He went out to try and get an elk and returned to it being gone. Sounds like someone and more than one were invloved being that a sled was used to get in there where he was.

Sorry to hear, I hope someone is able to recognize the deer wherever it ended up, it's a shame how things like this happen.

deerhunter_98520 · « **Reply #12 on:** November 19, 2014, 07:00:12 AM »

Hope he finds it....can't believe what some people do these days

kodiak 907 · « **Reply #13 on:** November 19, 2014, 07:15:37 AM »

I would be back out hunting

. Sorry to hear this

Ridgerunner50 · « **Reply #14 on:** November 19, 2014, 07:26:54 AM »

I don't understand why someone would steal someone's deer. To me having horns or a shoulder mount hanging remind me of the hunt and friends or family involved. Every time whomever took this buck looks at it they will be reminded of what a scum bag they are.

elkoholic1 · « **Reply #15 on:** November 19, 2014, 07:54:35 AM »

WOW great buck but still can not for the life of me understand why someone would want a deer they didnt shoot!!!!!

i mean come on your some kind of special low life if you steal a animal just so you can brag to your friends you got a animal but karma will find you and strike you down,

Motorjosh · « **Reply #16 on:** November 24, 2014, 06:42:43 PM »

Hope he finds it. My dad had a dog stolen while he lived on the river. Someone pulled up in a boat while he was at work and stole his black lab.

Watimberghost · « **Reply #17 on:** November 24, 2014, 06:50:53 PM »

I could see low life's like that showing people and bragging him up. Hopefully someone recognizes him and turns them in. That's garbage... Great buck by the way

Becky · « **Reply #18 on:** November 24, 2014, 06:51:35 PM »

Send pics to all the taxidermists you can find in that general area. That sucks, I'd be so devastated.

bowhunterwa87 · « **Reply #19 on:** November 24, 2014, 06:53:05 PM »

Couple years ago my boss was in lewistown mt at the bar and a guy came in bragging about the size of deer in his truck....when he went to leave a couple hours later the whole deer was gone...

BOWHUNTER45 · « **Reply #20 on:** November 24, 2014, 07:14:52 PM »

It is all over the internet ..hopefully they catch the dirt bag ..that buck is So big that I would call in a FEDERAL AGENT

CAMPMEAT · « **Reply #21 on:** November 24, 2014, 07:26:46 PM »

Rich, non hunters love stuff like that on their expensive log home walls..

Hope you find the person who stole it and give him some back alley justice.........

klickriverchromer · « **Reply #22 on:** November 24, 2014, 07:43:34 PM »

People amaze me! Scum of the earth kind of person that would do something like that.

h2ofowlr · « **Reply #23 on:** November 25, 2014, 07:23:03 AM »

He will have to frame and mount that picture on the wall.

my thoughts exactly, whoever took it probably isn't going to do much more than sell it

birddogdad · « **Reply #25 on:** November 25, 2014, 08:05:57 AM »

always been a concern packing things out with me... I hate leaving anything at or near my vehicle until I can keep the "honest" people honest....

stud buck , sorry for the loss.... has he provided the pic to all regional taxidermy folks? Save some meat for dna later if found?

You can take the antlers out first in Idaho...doesn't sound like it would matter in this case though...the guy had the whole deer at camp and went out elk hunting?

I'm with Madmax on this one though...I'm not a meat hunter and so I want to make as certain as I can the antlers will not disappear...usually that means taking them out first...sometimes though its safer to leave them for the last trip. Its sad hunters even have to think about stuff like this.

Hopefully Facebook comes through again with dirtbags posting.

xXLojackXx · « **Reply #28 on:** November 25, 2014, 11:53:16 AM »

What a shame. What would you even do with a stolen buck like that? Every taxidermist in the area is going to have an eye out for it. Unless they're in on it

pianoman9701 · « **Reply #29 on:** November 25, 2014, 11:57:54 AM »

Am I the only one who thinks the hunter looks like Brett Favre?

Apparently word got out enough as the buck was returned. I think I saw where it scored 192. He got his trophy back, that's the most important thing!

Woodchuck · « **Reply #33 on:** January 05, 2015, 07:31:39 AM »

Any details as to how that went down?

Oh man! So glad this guy got his buck back!!

fordpowerforever · « **Reply #35 on:** January 05, 2015, 08:46:41 AM »

bearhunter99 · « **Reply #36 on:** January 05, 2015, 09:03:33 AM »

Nope. Thats two bucks I have seen stolen and recovered probably from the effects of social media.

Very cool that it got back where it belongs.

fly4fish · « **Reply #39 on:** January 05, 2015, 02:33:50 PM »

I read on FB that he did get the rack back. Someone overheard another that the rack was returned to the scene of the crime. According to the info I read, Chuck (the rightful owner) had to go back there and get it. Sounds strange to say the least, but it was on FB so it must be true!

Seen yesterday that he got his buck back .. Internet works in all ways ...Good and bad ! Sounds like the buck is over 200 inches
