YESTERDAY WHILE HELPING A YOUNG MAN SCOUT FOR HIS STAND WE GOT TO TALKING. HE ASKED ME IF I TAGED ALL THE DEER THAT I HARVEST. I EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT YES I DID. I BELEIVE THAT, IN THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, YOU CAN GET ALMOST AS MANY TAGS AS YOU WANT AND I THINK THE MONEY IS WELL SPENT TO SUPPORT THE DNR. HE BRAGS THAT HE DOES NOT TAG ANY DEER AND MOST OF THE TIME DOES NOT EVEN PURCHASE A LISCENSE.

Eplain to him what your thoughts are on poaching, as that is what he is doing. Ask him to stop that behabior. If he continues to poach, stop helping him out in the woods, tell him you will not associate with him if he doesn't stop poaching. If that doesn't wok, drop the dime on him.

Report the conversation to the local Game Warden.
Not much to discuss in my mind!

I eat, therefore I Hunt!

I've got to agree with the others. The fact that he does not purchase a license shows he does not wish to contribute to the preservation of our sport since that is where a majority of the money goes. If he is not tagging what he shoots, he is a poacher. Add in that he brags about it and he is extremely misguided and unethical. You need to do your duty as a hunter and advise the game warden of his actions so they can be stopped.
