Poached..

[Bgoodman30]

Looks like a bird on his back as well.. Really pisses me off because this is one of the birds I was going to take my 9 yo son after..

Anyways TWRA notified and we have people on it.. But if anyone recognizes this knucklehead off Hwy 50 in Centerville let me know?

 

[PossumSlayer]

Good luck catching his ass

Turkey hunters seem to be the worst for trespassing

 

[redblood]

Yep. I have been worried about it since I shot my bird the first Sunday and its only been hunted one other time..

I couldn't get my son out of bed (I don't force it) or we would have been right there with him....

Always had my suspicions as I have had my cameras messed with and signs go missing..

 

[waterman]

that sux

 

[deerfever]

Hate that happened and I hope they get him. I can't believe the boldness of some people to get on another man's land to hunt.

 

[jc0313]

Hope you are able to catch him and prosecute, poachers are scum.

 

[Gravey]

Definitely had a bird over his shoulder. With that pic hopefully it's easy if he's from the area. Good luck!!!

 

[Turkeychaser]

Hope you catch him!

I'd be talking to the surrounding land owners to see if he came in from their property.

 

[bloodtrailing]

if he did not check it in that could add to his problems. If he did, they can use that to get a list started.

Tell them " you're hunting him now ". All you got to say. Word will get out, and one way or another that scum and others won't come around again.

Or put up signs at the local gas station.

Yup. Easier to grab a bird and go than a deer.

 

[wildside]

best of luck...that really should never happen

This...

Toting a bird has the potential to cause many more problems and make it easier to catch him.

 

[rem270]

That sucks. Hopefully he'll be easy to use identify

I have seen it a lot, not near as much as coon hunters but I've seen a lot of it.

 

[Bgoodman30]

We are in west Hickman just a couple miles from 50 and I know guys that know a lot of people…is this more W Hickman or E Hickman?

One of my neighbors got into an altercation with a coon hunter, the dogs had chased a coon up into his yard, and they were shining lights into his windows, middle of the night. Coon hunter had the nerve to tell him he had permission from the landowner to hunt there. My neighbor is the landowner.

Yes, not sure why people think they can go wherever they want. I like to ask them if they want me riding through their yards. Trespassing is rampant here, mostly just riders. Guy came riding through with his boom box blasting, claimed to be lost. Ruined my turkey hunt for the day.

I deal with trespassers all the time at my place. Not just hunters, walkers and treasure hunters with nice detectors. I love all the excuses and names of people that gave them permission.

 

[RUGER]

Hope you can find out who it is.

If you don't chase a gobbling bird, you ain't much of a turkey hunter. LOL

Coon hunters are worse though.

I guess W. Hickman not far from Centerville.
