Went out last night shot a 130ish 8 pointer [:D],,,,But the OUCH! part I came back in town to get help "1 hour" later we head back out fallowing the blood trail and come up on a gut pile.[}:)]
Who ever was there musta had a climber for a stand because there was none in sight..Owell I hope they have some good eating.

BTW what I think should happen to people like that...........well I plead the 5th.
Sorry you lost your deer BUT... did you tag it before you left? Leave a number on it? Mark it with your name? Well if not then the person who came upon it and didnt see anyone around had every right to take your deer. Better to take a "lost" deer that someone gave up on ( I know this was not the case but how would they know?) then to leave the meat to rot. If you left the area without marking the deer.. well I hate to say it but it's your fault. Sorry Too but I have to fully agree people who come upon a deer dont have a cryatal ball[;)] i know it sucks but tough lesson. can you feel the love[;)]

I hunt with some older (i.e. collecting social security) guys that have my home and cell numbers. They know that if they lay one down I'll be glad to come out and help them drag it out, hang it, and clean it. I'm a nice guy ;-)
Yep, I never leave one out there, that's what radios and/or cell phones are for - - If you need help, hopefully they can come to you.

Yeah but you are too far away to do that for me....

I went to get my brothers to help track,drag it out.
that way it had a good 1/2 hour to die well it shoulda ben dead.
So I didn't mark or tag the deer it was only 75 to 100 yards from my stand where we find the gut pile...
And for a radio,cell we can't use them here thats a no no[B)]
This is on pulic land so who knows who else was out there.

not able to use a cell phone or radio? Come on now I dont believe that for a second. Maybe you cant use one to aid hunting, like here in Ga, but I highly doubt that it is against the law to use a radio or cell to call for help.
