We've had this problem off and on for a while now. This is about the third or fourth time in three or four years. I wish I could get in contact with someone who would actually put a stop to it. These are the only two deer dead in this field, I know their doing it on purpose.

Farmers killing bucks with their depredation deer permits? That would be illegal. Can't you report them?

Yea I have. The wardens have checked these deer personally as I saw two in the fields. Their personal friends with these farmers and "advised" them not to, that's what I was told by one of them. Smdh

My dad had a permit back in the 90s and it was for any deer, any time of day. Have they changed the permits to protect bucks?

Its sickening to see pics like those, but the permit my dad had required that the deer had to be left in the field to rot. Unless they have changed things, the farmer who shot those deer may have handled it the way he was required. I would be interested in hearing more about it.

Its a sad sight no natter what the rules.

no PCP I heard from the game wardens mouth that it clearly states anterless only. I think he also said the it actually states that on their permits as well. Not sure about that though. And like I said, he "advised" them not to do it. Instead of writing them tickets

Thanks for the info. I guess they have changed the permits; not really something I've kept up with. I remember my dad waking me up at 2 am to go shoot at deer with a 22. I made sure I shot over them, he didn't.

If they're doing it at night, they may not be able to tell if it has antlers or not. Is the land owned or leased by the farmer?

The permit I've been on was for antler less only. It's really hard to tell at night and the farmers want you to kill them all.

the farmers lease the farming rights. And FYI, these deer were shot less than 100 yards from the road, out of a vehicle, with night vision equipment AND with the aide of a Qbeam.

And why is it that hunters are required to know exactly what their shooting at in regards to size and sex but farmers aren't? THEY SHOULD MAKE SURE 100% OF THE SEX BEFORE PULLING THE TRIGGER.

That really sucks. Years ago we had a lease in peanut country right on the coffee - pike co line. Those peanut farmers would shoot every deer they saw whether it was daylight or dark or in a field or on the side of the road. The same guys would put you 6 feet under if you messed with their turkeys

Farmers that used to shot crop deer around here only gut shot the animal. Those kinda look like spine shots. Gut shot deer run off the field to die not get caught up in a header.
Years ago I did know of a fellow that tried to kill big bucks on the crop permit close to Oct 15th. In todays hunting world there should
be NO issue of crop depravition permints. Simply let folks harvest the excess aninamls.

Pitiful. I agree there's no need for dep permits much anymore. My name is on several but I just don't care to go do it anymore. We always gut shot does only. Made the extra effort to do it right but some folks just think it's an excuse to act like fools.

The game wardens who chose not to write tickets to those farmers, have bosses. I'd rattle their phone off the desk.

I hate to see waste like that.

Agreed FurFlyin. That's ridiculous they can get away with that. Simply not doing their job by doing that.
