It's been a long time since I had a yoohoo.
Does that mean you recently had some funyuns?

Haven't had those in a while either.

It is just so frustrating to see that kind of stuff.  Those are 5 does that a new youth hunter could have taken.  It is just such a waste on so many levels.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

That's a lot more than 5 deer lost right there.  A real bummer.

So they think someone shot them at night/early morning, loaded them in a truck, drove them to the camp 9 campground and butchered them there?

It would have to be at least two guys right?

I wonder how many they shot that ran off and were just too much trouble to track down and load up in the truck.

At least some of those does were probably bred carrying fawns.

This is the kind of crap that truly upsets me...

Our herds are already in bad shape then we have these jerk-offs out there poaching. 

Truly not sportsmen

Poachers suck, no matter how they do it. They usually waste but this is really bad waste. Infuriating.  :bash:

Interesting. The cuts they took are all the best jerky cuts. See who is selling deer jerky on the side.
