Weird??? That buck was posted last year in October. They said it was a desert buck in the original text message and post. There was not a desert permit season open yet. So they changed the story that it was not actually a desert buck.

Now you say it was a desert buck and killed with a late tag. What up?????

Uh oh! I hate it when you can't remember how you lied last time.

Johnny just has his story mixed up I hope. As I know where and when this buck was harvested  and it was completely legal. Multi-season tag muzzie buck.

How do you get a story like that mixed up? Something is up :o Either the guy was drunk or on drugs when he said it. If its all legal then congrats nice buck.

I call BS then. I had a friend once and I mean once, that was saying this same crap. His stories did add up and I should had turned him in, but I wasn't over there to see it. He went over to the Swankane area and shot a huge 4x4 with a .22 mag, he said he went there to shoot coyotes before the deer season, BS. I never talked to him again that was 16 years ago.

I believe there is bucks like that in every unit its just finding them. But the true on the internet cops. why does every big deer automatically get assumed it was poached. Some people actually put in lots of hard work and get rewarded for it....
Title: Re: Desert buck?? 2010

Post by: johnnyaustin44 on October 12, 2011, 01:19:57 PM
Well I understand your concerns and am sure many bucks are poached there as well as every other unit but this one however was not but if I was you and heard both stories I would be suspicious as well.
Title: Re: Desert buck?? 2010

I think the word desert buck and desert unit are being mixed up. I think what is being said is, the deer is a desert buck, not that it was killed in the Desert unit. Just a guess on my part, do not know any thing other than what I have read on here.

Yes, I read that. But to me it reads as it was not killed in the Desert Unit, but a desert buck. There is a lot of desert in E.Wa.

Yeah I know, lots of desert. Just thought the story was odd. I'm not one to give out a honey hole. Like I was saying earlier all legal then thats a nice buck and way to go. I wish I had that tag and buck.

I am not in the know on this buck. I agree with you, if it was a legal take it was one of the better bucks killed in the state last year.

I thought you were saying it was one of the better bucks "posted on the internet". And I said yes you were going to send some stud buck pictures and a pic of the buck you thought might of been the one I killed but from the year before.

Yeah I would split it, put it as a desert unit or desert buck. I think we quashed this thread like a soap opera.

Post by: woodywsu on October 12, 2011, 04:51:36 PM
Johnny, Call your "friend" and ask him where the buck was killed. GMU 290 Yes or No. I know the answer but your are confusing the hell out of people on here. The guy probably hasn't been back on this site because of the wardens looking into his kill because of a misunderstandment. Some text message says "desert buck" when the muzzie desert tag hadn't started.

While poaching in the desert unit is absolutely horrible, this buck was taken legally and outside of the unit. Congrats on a nice kill and I hope the guy comes back to the site.

Friken weird!  I live in the so called desert type terrain and have hunted mulies here for 20+ years along with allot of other serious big game hunters. The " Desert Unit" is almost our back yard per say. I spend allot of time in and around the area and NOT one of us calls any Mulie we have shot a " Desert buck" unless it is out of the " Desert unit". PERIOD! :bash:

This whole thing sucks in my opinion. but just to stir the pot last year i was duck hunting in the desert unit when some goofball walked by with his rifle i flag him down to ask how his hunt was going and he told me this unit sucks a buddy told him their were some good bucks here but he hadn't seen anything. i informend him this was a permit only unit and he shrugged his shoulders and walked off. What an idiot!!!

I do not think all deer are poached!!!!

If you got a text picture of this buck last year on October 3 and the title said Desert Unit buck what woud you think? The a year later you see a topic called "My sons desert A tag" and the guy is asking for desert pictures. Johnny posts this buck again and says here is a desert permit buck my buddy killed last year. I ask are you sure its desert. He says Positive. Well I go back again, hmmm buck was shot October 3. Desert Muzz hunt starts October 16. Ity sounded pretty clear cut to me it was a desert buck shot before season was open.  :dunno:

Why am I catching crap for this. No one else sees a flag???? Ok so maybe he meant desert type area (dunes and sage outside of area 290) but that is no way how it came across both times.

I never said  he was a poacher. I was just looking for an explanation.

If your going to post a buck for the public to see you should make sure that you get it right. No one calles the area around the desert unit the desert. Come on thats just asking for trouble. "He dude I shot a desert buck the other day. But not really in the Desert just in the desert around the desert"  :bash:

do you tell everyone where you kill your animals? i dont, as a matter of fact i tell them whatever pops into my head at the moment. i dont check to see if the unit is open before i tell someone where it "came" from. i dont think even a poacher would be stupid enough to post pics of a huge poached deer on a popular internet website.

even IF it was poached what good does bitching and complaining do about it a year later?

Officer: "sir did you shoot that deer in the desert unit?"

Hunter: "nope"

Officer: "are you positive?"

Hunter: "yep"

officer: "well since its been a year i guess we really cant prove either way where this deer was shot so have a nice day."

Were girls dressed in Tia dye, stinking of what they call a natural weed, wearing peace symbols and giving me the finger for the dead buck I had in the back of the truck in Levenworth WA.

Haha ok your right. Next time someone asks me where I shot my buck my default will be the desert unit. Smart Move. Especailly since there are about 20 tags given out and limited seasons. Come to think of it, the desert unit should be the first place that pops in your head to tell people where you shot a buck. How silly am I.

Second. They can convict a year later. I know one way that would be very easy. I wil not disclose how on a public forum becaue I do not want poachers to figure it out. Its an easy catch though trust me. Another way is his buddy who is openly discussing it a year later thinking its now ok. Johnny stated pretty clearly that he was POSITIVE it was the Desert. And I am positive i was not open yet.

Sorry you do not give a rats a$$ about poaching but I my freind do!!! I care that I hunt my a$$ off all year for a trophy and some sleaz balls poach them when ever they want. I have seen it happen around here to monster bucks. I know of 200" + bucks that have been plucked from the unit. Getting proof is not easy but that doesnt mean I wont try. How does it feel to know that you put in a unit for 15 years and never draw, then when you do you find out that there are locals that have ben killing them and not waiting. Now you get a crack at them and good luck, they are all dead!!

I never called the guy a poacher for the record. I only asked Johnny a few questions. The answers were the same as what I got from someone else last year. Enough to concern me.

first if an officer were to come to my house and want me to prove where i took the animal i would have no problem doing so as i am not a poacher and i have nothing to hide.

second who ever said i didnt give a rats ass about poaching? i surely didnt, i think they are the lowest form of scum on earth. :hello:

Post by: Button Nubbs on October 12, 2011, 10:24:51 PM
well it seems as if this picture got around quite a bit. there are  people on both threads saying it was NOT killed in the desert unit. someone could have easily changed the title on the picture message you recieved.

btw i would love to hear how they could catch a poacher this long after the fact. pm me if i didnt rub you the wrong way too much...

You just dont get it do you. READ.

I took it as a deer killed in the desert...If you think it can be proven that there was poaching here then turn it in! You already said you knew some Secret Squirrel way to prove it! What point is there in hassling people over the pic at this point? If I was sure that someone had poached that deer I would turn it in, if you are sure...you should.

I think it was a legitimate question myself.     I'd have thought the same damn thing Wastickslinger.  As for telling lies about where you shot your buck...I NEVER DO.  I will flat tell you I won't tell you, sorry.  BUT lieing is a pet pieve of mine I guess.  I personally like straight shooters.
