Seen big buck this morning. In my estimation it must have weighed 150 pounds. Don't ask me how many points though. The *********** that shot it cut the head off and left the body.
Calling FWC when they open. Don't know that it'll do any good though. Kinda hard to catch the perpetrators now I suppose.
Maybe they made a poor shot and didn't find it until the meat was soured? Maybe not.

Last year on an archery quota I came across that exact scenario. It was a Saturday through Tuesday hunt and the guy shot it on Saturday afternoon and didn't find the deer until late Tuesday evening. We smelled the rotting flesh about 100 yards away from the parking lot, and saw the horns sticking out of the garbage bag. It's a shame how it went down because it was truly a south florida trophy.
Please refrain from using profanity on here. I edited your post.
Need more details on the situation to form an opinion as to why the head was just cut off and the rest left.
