Some of you know that I killed a turkey out of season in November. I killed a hen with my bow and checked it in not knowing that the season had ended that weekend. I thought it stayed in until bow deer season went out. Anyway, I turned myself in to the game warden.
Well, my court date finally rolled around. It was last tuesday Jan. 24. I showed up and never had to say a word. The game warden had already spoken with the judge and I was given 8 hours community service and a month of probation. I was happy to take it considering what I thought may happen. I'm not sure if this is on my record or not. I have to find that out. It was a misdemeanor. Either way, I was happy with the outcome. What lesson did I learn? Well, thats easy. I am going to know the seasons like the back of my hand from now on.
Just wanted to let the curious know how it turned out in the end. Not all game wardens are bad, especially if you tell them the truth.
