Don’t Be Fooled

Deer hunters need to know that some conservation agents come to the homes of those who telecheck large antlered deer and ask to see the place where their deer was killed. If a hunter complies, they will be cited for some technical offense or charged with baiting even if no baiting has been done. Always, 100 percent of the time, if you take an agent to the place, you killed a deer, you will be charged with some type of offense! Always, 100 percent of the time, it will involve a large antlered deer that will be confiscated. It happened to me a few years back. Two agents stood on my porch for a half hour questioning me about a buck I killed. I eventually closed the door on them and they left.
