turned in a poacher

[fishermanjoe]

Its not that i am trying to the the "tough guy" thing its that i dont like the fact of being called a liar, *censored*bag, full of s#!%, ect. ect. I am giving you a chance to call me out on it, but no taking a running hit with verbal slander is much easier than proving i am wrong. I would like to save face on this website because after this my handle will have no credibility.

Come on guys, this is a perfectly reasonable request.  

Ok, I'll start.  

Calling the old man a poacher is pretty serious stuff.  I doubt many of us here (certainly not me) would call him a poacher.

When you first started the thread, why didn't you bring up the fact that your "ex-hunting buddy" shot at it also?

When you first started the thread, why didn't you mention that it was at best barely "illegal" ?


p.s.
(I would have let the old man keep it if I were the warden and congratulated him?  Of course, I recongnize a law that is silly to expect people to be perfect on when I see it and would always give benefit of the doubt to the hunter just because it is such a silly law.)

you are right, I can't PROVE you are wrong. I have all the info I need to base my opinion. I don't care what everyone else thinks about you. Ok, I have to go check trail cams now, Have a nice day.

I didnt mention my ex-hunting partner shooting because i wanted to stay anonymous, but there were a bunch of new accounts made of the people involved, thus after that i had no problem telling the whole story.

Why did i not mention that is was barely illegal once again i wanted to keep anonymous. People could of thought it was a 5x5 with no branched tag, or a 2x2 I was going to let them decide.

first they are cell phone pics (foggy), second he was covering up the second pt on one of the tines with his palm, so it would do no justice.

Post the pics, lets see what ya got.

See,, the second part here is where your story breaks down with me.  I/We know you can see the difference in calling someone a poacher who shot a 5 x 5 or someone who shot one that was "interpreted to be illegal"?  An eye witness said it took the warden three different ways to measure it to make it illegal.  That is a HUGE detail to leave out when you title your thread "I turned in a poacher".

Something is fishy.... maybe you can clearify?

[fishermanjoe]

well what would you rather have the title be?

Fishermanjoe.

My advice would be to let this thread die. You cannot win no matter how hard you try. This thing has been beat to death. Let it die so you don't damage your credibilty even further. It'll be difficult but just move on and let it die.

[dscubame]

Been thinking that for awhile Gutpile.  I 2nd that.
