Well my wife got me a Wool Longhunter Shirt from Ron La Clair for my birthday. So, I thought it would be a perfect day to go out and do some stump'n and looking for sheds. As I was walking the creek and woods close to it I realized I wasn't stump shooting I was debris shooting. I did shoot one stump just for the name of the game though. There is so much junk that has accumulated along the creek it really upset me. Then I came upon this. The antlers were cut off and the rest left to the critters. I hate wanton waste, not to mention what the children that play in those woods think when they see this. All in all though I had a good time out in the woods. It was a beautiful day and I was shooting good too.
I wouldn't look at the worst for the dead deer! I have found plenty of dead deer and either cut the rack off or the skull! Its a shame on all the garbage, nice shooting though! How do you like the Longhunter shirt. I'll probably pick one up over the summer!
If it was shot and lost (it happens, I've had it happen) then it was shot on a county easment where no hunting is legal. It would have died right beside a pedestrian trail with it's vertabrae seperated at the shoulders from the rest of the carcass. It's back was completely broken. Another possible senario is it was dumped after the kill. I posted an answer about the shirt for you in HuntingNet.com
Good gabage shooting and a pity about the deer those guys need to be taken behind the wood shed:d I see trash like that on public land down here all the time, I usually walk out with 2 or 3 gabage bags full, sad thing is tho they have rubbish bins in the parking lot, people are just too lazy these days to carry out their trash.
