OK here is my take on the whole situation. One even if the gas people had permission to be on the property that is for them pocess the gas well and maintain it. It becomes poaching as soon as one of them pulls out there rifle and shoots anything on a piece of property they have no permission to HUNT. It might have been against the law to take the rack but come on dont acuse him of being a poacher when he isnt. I really dont care what they law says If I was on the jury for this insident Not guilty. Do the animal some kind of justice by at least displaying want the animal hadnot by leaveing the deer to rot in some field.Just tell people the story of the animal who know the only people that really know is the person who shot that deer. I dont see him around so we may never know. But at least use him as a tool to show people the effects of one bad shots and poach. Respect the animal you hunt.
