Nice buck congrats. I would have looved to see pics of that monster you were talking about? Was it shot off of the propert without permission?
-
yes unfortunatly it was, have had problems in the past with that guy as well. will try and get a pic of the buck i want to see it too.
-
Nice looking buck! Congrats. WOuld like to see pic's of that monster as well.
-
way to go, im jealous!!
-
another nice buck, congrats
-
Great Buck!!
-
Great deer. Sorry that guy got on your land shot what could have been on of YOUR bucks :P
-
Congrats on a fine buck.
If the land is posted as no trespassing can you press charges? I guess it probably comes down to burden of proof. How did you find out about him sneaking onto the property?
-
well the trespass laws there r governed by the state police and they actually have to see them on the property. we found the drag marks in the snow.he always hangs a standon the neiboring land about 10 yards from the line. the guy as been a pain in the ass for years. he sneaks in in bow seasson too. i found one of his stands hidden in a brush pile and took it. i dont feel we should have to patrol it too keep people out. we usd to let people hunt it if they ask first and got a permission slip. but quads trails started appearing and trash everywhere so we posted it.

Great Pa deer! I sure enjoy hunting back there! Lots of deer. I remember seeing 60 or 70 deer on PA opening mornings! May have been some of the same deer getting bumped around. Cant wait till the runway expansion gets done at Erie so they can get North West flights from MSP. One less stop would be nice, dont like flying threw Detroilet. What flights do you take to get back there?
-
Nice buck Strut!!! Quite a year you've had. Nice sized body on that deer. Job well done
-
Nice buck Strut, too bad you didn't get a shot at that big one though.
-
Nice deer. The body looks huge. Too bad some people don't respect other peoples property. It would be nice to catch the a-hole in the act and pepper his butt with some rock salt.
-
:yeah: :hunter:
-
It is very hard to keep tresspassers out back there. We too have had problems with non welcome hunters. The city of Erie is about 30 mi north of of his property and the city of Pittsburgh is about 90 mi south. Lots of hunters from the cities flock to Crawford county. A lot dont ask permission. But we too have trouble with local people. Our Property is in the northern part of Crawford co. Very hard to keep them out!
-
Nice buck!!! Thanks for posting the pic!!!
-
I used to live in Dubois, I sure miss seeing them under the treestand.
-
Sounds like a great day in the woods! :tup:
-
Those are some big bodied bucks.
