Default Have you ever poached deer?

Simple "YES" or "NO" question. You dont have to comment on the thread if you want to keep your identity hidden, just vote.

Nope. Its hard to make a good story that ends with, "and thats how I poached this deer."

No, never deer.Once I poachedfish out of a resevoir in Ct. when I was 12 years old. I wasn't caught but I told my dad where I caught them. He whipped my butt. I haven't even considered it again. Thanks dad!

Yes!

My wife actually wanted it for herself, but she went to bed early...and I snuck in and poached that last piece of cake for myself like a common thief. Of coarse my wife wasn't too happy about it the next morning and I was placed in solitary (i.e. couch) the next few days.

Define "poach". Are we talking about going out & jacklighting one or is shooting a deer a minute after legal shooting hours considered poaching?

Am I the only one who thinks the online hunting community IQ just took a nose dive?

Not proud of it, but about 14 - 15 yrs ago I poached quite a few, rifle kills, bow kills, even a little "jack-lighting." I've also legally done some "jack-light" farm destruction kills. Did I know it was wrong???? Certainly, but we also used all of the meat, and NEVER poached bucks, only does. I know that doesn't make it "OK," but it's the truth, regardless. I'm not ashamed of it, I know I should've done things differently, but I cannot go back and change the past.

This thread reminds me of when I went with a buddy to buy a deer rifle one time. He has to fill out a form...and the first question is:

"Are you currently a fugitive from justice"

I asked him if anyone ever answered "yes".

Here's your sign![&:]
