So did they shoot it with a bow? I know it's not legal to bait but itsn't that just called illegal baiting.. I thought poaching was shooting out of season.. Or are you saying that any deer taken by stretching the rules is poaching.. Such as baiting, hunting as it's gettign dark, shooting from the road etc.. I mean I hunt by the law but I know some who have tossed out apples and shouldn't but I don't turn them in.. That's on them imo, I will feel better about being successful legally.. Anyway i'm glad you seen themand I don't agree with it either way but I was just curious about your meaning to the word poaching.

I also agree with with not letting them know who turned them in.. People do stupid stuff sometimes and if your all hunting in the same area I wouldn't want anyone getting hurt.. Or for an argument to break out and have both of you lose your hunting rights on this piece ofground.
