How do you suppose anyone thought they could hide something like him?

I am kind of surprised it took that long to find this buck.

Yeah, isn't the bucks name Sampson? I remember the theft. It was really spread through the hunting and non hunting communities....when it first happened there was something like a 50 thousand dollar reward......

What some people will stoop to. Poaching a domestic whitetail is lower then lower. I hope they throw the book at this JA.

Sounds like grand larceny to me. bye-bye Jeffrey

I think he was deer-knapped. Wouldn't a couple nice mounted Largemouth Bass look right at home up there in those antlers?

That picture is from my deer cam in my food plot a couple weeks ago. I let him walk last year because he was only 4 pointer. Boy is that boilogic some good stuff. I think I'll take him this year!

His real name is Golieth, Spencer the deer knapper had renamed him Sampsom in hope that his owner Rodney Miller would recognize him.

That is one Ugly looking deer, i wouldnt even have buck fever shooting him! How do u steal a deer????

If I remember the story correct they found him just a few miles from the area where he was stolen.

They cut a whole in the fence just to take him specifically. There were a good number of other deer that were found outside of the fence, but left behind.

It's good to see justice was done. I grew up in Lucinda....about 15 minutes from Knox. We had some big deer in the area that weren't born and raised in a pen too!
