and everyone else one too many times...A retired NJ corrections officer/taxidermist recently tried to enter another entry into the books but didn't make it. He had a turkey and coyote and whitetail nontypical. While trying to enter a Typical buck for muzzleloader he embarrassed himself. Boone and Crocket wasn't buying it this time. They payed him a visit and wanted to see the gutpile and harvest location and he said that animals must have eaten it. So they then proceded to take dirt from the animals hoof and examine it more closely(modern forensics will get you everytime). It turns out that the dirt wasn't native to the hunting location. The end result was they found out that he hunted the deer in PA at a fenced outfitter and brought it back to NJ. It was a 180 pound deer that he claimed he shot in salem county. Bummer for him - being busted in a big lie like that. The turkey was raised in his backyard....so say some people who know him and knew he had a turkey he was raising. They told him he was full of it and they probably tipped off Boone and Crocket to check out his story.
