I saw that and immediately wondered if that was the only excuse they could think of.  The fact they launched multiple shots at a moose and couldn't hit it suggests they actually might not know what they are doing.

From what we see on the TV shows, 99% of people caught have some type of BS excuse to try to get out of the citation.

Haven't heard anything about it? I do know folks are seeing wolves all over the Valley, reminds me of 2010 when a bunch of wolves suddenly "migrated" to the Methow.

Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

That's to bad. That bull has been up there all summer hanging out next to the road. Plenty of Facebook posts about it. Doesn't surprise me someone couldn't resist themselves. Just can't leave a good thing alone.
I hunt, therefore I am.... I fish, therefore I lie.
