Anyone heard of your Game and Parks using 1 of these? Its a mechanical deer that ears and head moves, tail wags and is operated by a warden sitting in a hidden spot watching to see who decides to take pop shots off the road. It was in our local paper and they said this decent sized 4x4 is the 2nd one that they have. Its already has 2 bullet holes in it and the other one was retired because it was so shot up. It looks real because it was done by a taxidermist using a real deer. I think it would be kinda fun running the remote and seeing what people do driving by.

The Wardens aroiund here have used one before. Many of the area "hunters" have fallen victim to it, too.

Oh the mechanical deer? LOL I expected to see another great example of a Rob buck not robo-buck.[8D]

I myself think it would be a great job catchin' poachers shooting at it. It would be a rush!!! And just to see the look on there faces when they shoot it and it dont go down would be priceless!!!!!!

i know our local GW had to get another one cause some idiot wasn't smart enough to realize it was fake and shot it 5 times. she said she had to stop laughing before she could go arrest him.

The guide that I use in Alberta donated one of those (like $3000)tohis local DNR guys to help with the poaching problem in the area. He gets this money from a game fund he started. When you shoot a buck lower than P&Y min gross score or wound (and don't recover) a buck, it cost's you $300. I think it's a great contribution to a great cause.They've already caught numerous poachers with it!

Yea DT, I could see how thatwould be the "real deal". Hunting something that's hunting you. Whack or get whacked!You're the man!

pretty commonly used...


i hope to get to run one some day!!!

i think it would be an interesting operation and id like to crack down on poachers. chances of me running one are pretty decint too....

pretty sure it was in PA they had a bust for guys shooting a fake pheasant....come on now...a freakin pheasant! thats a scum bag there lol...

and yes, now adays they are all mostly REAL mounted game animals....and used by state and fed agencies to crack down on poachers...whether its somewhere hunting isnt allowed...to using them at night to catch jacklighters...to putting protected animals in plain view....

it would be a scary moment approaching someone that just broke the law and you KNOW they have a loaded weapon....
