    It really chaps me when these so called ethical hunters and "great" hunters pack an -06 or 270 in muzzleloader season. I know the in-lines can shoot a pretty good poke, but still, muzzleloader season means muzzleloader season. I just couldn't put a rack on the wall or enjoy a roast knowing I cheated. Rant over.

    Instead of ranting online, why not turn them in?

    I've called fw before but if they don't catch them in the act there's really nothing that can be done or proven. Our county has 1 warden covering over 500 sq miles by himself. He tries the best he can but the back log of calls he has is a lot and after a deer has been shot and skinned and boned out pure hearsay is not going to net a conviction.

    I'll just keep my contempt to myself although I'm sure many here have experienced the same.

    How about snapping pics, or videos. Sounds like they're doing it openly, doesn't seem to hard to prove?
