He is either a convicted poacher who is hunting without a license or a convicted felon who is possessing a firearm.
Which would help explain why he went to so much trouble to get the cameras.
Maybe you should run his picture by F&W and the local sheriff.

The cams have been out since March and this is the first human photo. I would just like to have a chat with this guy.
I will tell you right now who is in your pictures. It is ME! I saw that camera on the grade and did NOT disturb it! Dont accuse me of stealing your cameras because I also setup cameras and know what its like to have them stolen. I didnt see other cameras in there. If you think I am the only person that goes in there, you are heavily mistaken. You might want to be careful about posting pictures of people online calling them theives before you know the facts.
I don't see where he called anyone a thief, just wanted to ask you a few questions..... Maybe, who is your daddy and what does he do? :dunno:

Another reason to not like game cams.

"Hope to run into him someday"
"I figure the person came back with a power saw"
"I would just like to have a chat with this guy"
Maybe I am taking it wrong?

Im sorry for being upset, but when your picture is posted on something like this, people assume that the person in the picture is the theif. ANYONE in my shoes would be upset.
Understandable, I would be mad if someone posted a picture of me on here but the guy didn't know you were actually on here :chuckle: he's just trying to get answers seeing as he just lost more or less $400

I think I feel violated Jonathan. I want to be able to go out and hike without being filmed and studied maybe. Its like I climb a mountain to get away. I'm self analyzing at the moment.
I'm not in vehement contest with you by any means. I actually dislike a portion of the trail cam users.
Like when people set up on every trail and road within a 2-square mile area (I'm talking to you Mr. Primos Truth in GMU 117)
I guess I balked a bit when I read that sentence in your post because it seemed anti-trail camera use at first glance and I am a huge proponent of not necessarily the use of them but the ability to use them. I am very sensitive to issues that divide sportsmen and it worries me that we're going to start losing rights.

I have spoken with Beardown and have met he and his hunting partner before. I obviously didn't recognize him. He is a quality guy and most certainly not a poacher. I was very careful in the beginning not to accuse him because I have proof of nothing other than missing cameras and a person than enjoys littering and cutting trees down in our national forests. His reward will be getting to see all of the nice bulls that I have pictures of since March. Moderators, please remove pictures of this thread as soon as possible and I will ask to have the entire thread removed as soon as members have a chance to read this reply to clear Beardown's name and reputation. Thanks for understanding.
Forks replied as well as anyone should want. I also think this topic should stay online in hopes of Forks getting more info about his stolen cameras. Also it is a good reminder to be careful about accusing anyone and just to look for more info if you think someone is involved.
Boneaddict, I can see both sides of the trailcam issue, I sort of agree with both sides of the issue, not sure what the answer is? :dunno:

Thanks for keeping the thread up...interesting discussion
Maybe the discussion should be...do you allow posting game cam pics of people (as humorous as some are)
