RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

You doubters are amazing people. You can tell the whole story from some very low-quality photos and always smell a rat. I killed the best buck of my life Tuesday and didnt post for this very reason. A bunch of jealous wannabe's that wouldnt know what to do if a big buck lived in their flower garden. Just for the record, my taxidermist not only caped the deer but cut the skull plate AND cleaned it up so I could take the rack home until he is ready for it. It took a whopping 40 minutes and that was with me interrupting him with questions about what form I wanted to use. Your posts have proven your cluelessness and continue to discourage others from sharing their trophies. OFCOURSE THEY CUT THE DA*% ANTLERS OFF! You gonna mount the entire skull and neck meat??? I have no idea if he killed that deer and the fact is EITHER DO YOU. But I'm sure not going to accuse a man of lieing about it infront of the whole world. I say congrats to the man.

So when you find your deer, you don't tag it once you begin to take it from the woods?

Not trying to start beef with you, just an honest question.

I can understand not tagging it before you take your pictures just so that the pictures look more lifelike and more natural, but we've always tagged ours before that carcass is moved an inch.

Now clearly that rack has been moved from the woods. All of ours that have ever been mounted, nailed to boards or what not, have the tag either on the back of the plaque orbehind themount somewhere.

If his buddies found it, most likely they didn't tag it for him UNLESS they were carrying his tags around, which in that case (in IL) that's illegal as well as far as I know.

And I'm not saying he poached it or anything, Im just saying I could understand why it would look/seem kind of strange to most people.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

Well, I have hunted probably 10 different states and all are different. He looks to be in his own house with his own property. He clearly stated the cape is gone.He clearly is not in the field unless he hunts in his uniform. How many of your racks on the wall have a tag hanging from them?

I don't know if his buddies taged it or not. Thats not my business.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

Actually, ALL OF THEM.

Like I said, the tag is either on the back of the board that they are on, or the tag is behind the mount stapled to it. The tag is on the antlers until the rack is put onto the board or whatever, and then we put it on the back of the board, plaque, or whatever display it is.

For example, we have a piece of oak that I just recently made and put three racks on. The tags were on the racks but once I mounted the racks to the board, I peeled the tags off of the antler and stapled them to the back of the board. If you flip this board over onto the backside, the three tags are stapled onto it behind each individual rack.

Who knows, maybe he glued it to the back of the skull. Maybe he took it off for a second. Or maybe it don't matter to this guy to answer these childish stupid questions. For me, it would be the latter.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

Who knows, maybe you're right. Maybe, just maybe,you're wrong.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

In the other thread he said he took some pics with his cell phone at the taxidermist, so that is likely the taxidermist house in the pics.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

Maybe, who knows. Why does it matter so much to you? Point being, what is wrong with you people

Has hunters really gotten this bad to dog every person besides a select few when they kill a deer?

I remember when last year, a guy killed a record non-typical MD deer. First thing I saw, was 5 people saying it was poached. They all lived 3 hours from the guy, but hey, they know a buddy, who was a buddy of his sisters cousin who knows the guy spotlighted it. Thats a bunch of crap.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

It doesn't dude. If you read back, I even said that it didn't matter to me and that I was just saying some things that could look "odd" to people. Why does it even matter to you what some people think? Everyone has their own opinions, and to me, this situation just seemed kind of odd. I'm not jealous at all, I've seen bigger deer killed here where I hunt and congratulated the hunter, and was thrilled for them. I wish everyone could kill deer like that.

The only thing I found odd was that there was no tag on it. If his buddies found it in the woods, does that mean they took it to him and he put his tag on it? Not likely. Does it mean he gave them his tags to carry around in case they found it? Not likely.

It doesn't really matter to me one way or another, I'm just saying I can understand why some may question it.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

It doesn't matter to me on what some fools think. It matters to me that people are hounding the guy for no reason. Someone doesn't want to believe the guy, fine, let it be. If the guy is telling a lie, he will only hurt himself. But if he is telling the truth, all everyone is doing is beating up on him for no good reason.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

BIG buck!

RE: please delete :(
 

Nice rack. Congrats.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

I think the lesson is here , if you shoot a deer, it might be a good idea to 1st put your hands on em before you start a thread and brag about it. At least know he's dead , just makes hunters look bad to have all these " I shot one but cant find it" or "found its rotting or yotes eaten body a few days later , but hey I got the rack" threads on here everyday.

Im not saying you should be ashamed if it happens, it happens to most hunters , myself included, but for pete sake keep it to yourself. Does no one any good.

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

Some states don't have an antler tag. Only a body tag. Just when I was starting to post again in the bowhunting thread you guys pull your same 'ole crap again. You people amaze me!

RE: SCHULTZY POST THE PICS HERE (LESS PAGES)
 

In Georgia you do not put a tag on the deer. You have 10 spots for does and 2 spots for a buck, 1 quality and 1 any size except in managed counties and then the county rules apply. He may be telling a lie, but he has been way more open from the beggining about this deer than alot of other threads that have ended in thosands of kudos to the guy for sticking with it[:-]I want to see the picture...it got deleted before I could get home and see it.
