ijimmy,

I know what you were trying to say the first time, but the whole trophy vs. meat hunter argument[:@] really strikes a nerve with me and it just really bothered me. Sorry for the flame.[:' (]

Sad story there Proff....sorry it turned out that way. The authorities really need to get there head out of the sand on issues like that. Your friend did the right thing though.[:-]

FFTJ,

I understand completely.

RBH,

I follow you there. I still think there is a line....somewhere.


I likely would have tagged the deer the next day and asked the PGC for a new tag. Whether I deserve it or not is questionable....sort of -- if I shoot a gang green deer it isn' t fit for consumption. In this case the PGC will issue me a new tag. Isn' t this sort of the same deal? I mean a deer that' s been torn apart by coyotes, or anything for that matter, and not much left is certainly not fit for human comsuption, right? Same thing? Or different?
