hey I'm not saying anyone would pass a buck like this up, LOL
or even they should
BUT I am saying, its not the same in any way shape or form, if this kid knew it was there and targeted that area due to this info of knowing its there, its NOT like he grew the deer, or found it on his own!, or just dumb luck walked into it
and the info in that blog seems to state he knew it was there had trail cam pic's
and well, like I said, I bet it was there cause he had bait out(NOT ILLEGAL IN OHIO)
but took advantage of a pen raised deer maybe????
also, I would have hated to waste a tag on it and found out the state was taking it, or even the owner of it back!!
as after all, it was his property that got loose and was killed by someone??
like cow example
if a neighbors cow landed in your cow pen and you killed it, odds are he can claim it back, and even maybe press charges on you killing it??
again
Food for thought!
I'm glad the state let the folks keep them, IF that is true
BUT to be honest I would have a hard time hanging the head in my home and bragging about being a trophy deer I worked for!
I mounted a buck I hit with my truck, too, BUT never said I hunted it LOL
the mount has the hood Badge from my truck on it, t show it was a truck kill, and not a hunted buck kill
world of difference to me??
but to each there own!!
