Still if i was him i still couldnt butcher an illegal deer and not feel guilty of something. But hey its money and in this economy right now, i dont blame him for still doing it
I mean like locked gates,more patrols by FWC,and generally just keeping people out till a week before season to scout. I've been working out of town in Holopaw, Fl. south of St.Cloud and I have never seen so many large trophy buck deer walking around in bachleor groups,also large flocks of turkey and hogs everywhere. All on private property. I went to my club Sat and Sun morning and seen lots of deer,my buddy seen 4 bucks,just standing there looking at us. They are not bothered. Places like Richloam,Croom and otheres have people out driving around 24/7 and I know a guy who killed a giant 10 pt in Croom after season closed at night. I never seen the deer ,but I heard all about it.
I KNOW there are some great deer there. We had a lease there for more years than I can remember, and then, one day, the power company up and started building a power plant right smack in the middle of the lease, all because some rich guy decided to build the town of Harmony. We had lots of turkeys and some fine bucks on the property. Since then, been hopping from club to club and WMA to WMA trying to find a decent place to hunt since.
