He purchased the property just before turkey season,the prior owners had given someone permission to hunt and he put corn out for turkeys. When Archie bought it he told the guy he couldn't hunt there so the guy told the game warden where he put corn out to get Archie in trouble. Opening day the game warden gave Archie a ticket for hunting over bait. Archie asked him to show him the bait and the warden told him he couldn't because it was gone but it hadn't been gone for 10 days. Archie had no knowledge of the bait or location therefore won in court.


Well, YOU need to take it up with the court system, because the court record 100% states that it was wheat, there was a large amount of it still on the ground as well as sprouting up, it WAS his neighbor, Phillips did claim his neighbor was trying to set him up, and it was March 31st (NOT opening day). I didn't remember the exact details, but apparently I remember them a lot better than you do...
