Default RE: One BAD Day

I was born and raised in West Virginia and have bow hunted here for eight years. I don't think living in WV gives anyone an excuse for high country's actions. Some people may no follow the rules but everyone knows them. He is not a poor man trying to put food on the table or he wouldn't be on this forum. The daily limit is one deer..period. I have shot at 9 deer and recovered 7 of them. I never found the other two, not for lack of effort. They were evening hunts, and I didn't stop looking until midnight and was back looking the next day. Living in a state that has many poachers makes the rest of us strive even harder to be ethical and law abiding, it's easier to sleep at night. There is no excuse for high country's ignorance. I hope he is hunting a different part of this fine state than I am.

PS...he is getting off this forum because he can't come up with pictures, we all know that. West Virginia is very mountainous, in an hour and a half he finished eating, got his gear, got in the woods, made it the last place they had blood, found two deer that were not bleeding (or scarcely), gutted them, got them out of the woods, got cleaned up, signed on here, read the posts and commented...not to mention any bumps along the road...geeesh that took me an hour and a half to type.
