« on: November 04, 2024, 07:06:39 PM »
So I keep hearing \ seeing tiny bits of some wrongdoing during modern elk.  Anyone know the story?

Heard of a guy killing like six elk and wounding two

Seems to happen every year on some type of scale. Remember a few years ago a guy getting busted for shooting a few cow elk and a buck deer

There were multiple big bulls shot with rifles during archery season, just the heads were removed. Saw one personally and heard of a few more in other areas of the colockum

I didn’t hear about anything in my neck of the woods
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.

I heard of 8 cows and a small bull shot by one guy. Don’t know where or who.. I just heard it happened from a reliable source. Terrible!!!
If you can see it....... you can shoot it.

The one I heard about he told the game warden he thought he was missing but also animals dead or wounded he didn’t have tags for. Not sure what animals were hit. The game warden was offering meat to people if they wanted to pack it.

 I believe this was the buck you are referring to, about 10 years ago now
