Pretty big rack there. Did you get to keep the deer/rack Lugnut?


No you can’t shoot them then ask for a salvage tag, I know a guy that did that, the deer was stuck in a fence with a broken leg, he shot it then called the DNR, he got fined for poaching and had his gun taken.


I have shot them when hit buy a car. Had a Game warden show up to one. Short narrow shoulder guy real barny . Told me not to shoot them and wait on them next time. I told him it took an hour and a half for him to get there I'm not going to watch one flop tell it dies or wait that long. He wanted to argue then said I can see where it's booger up on its neck so I won't skin it to look it over I can tell it's been hit.I pointed out you could also see the busted turn single and head light pieces in the road, and offered him my place to hang and skinn it out if he wanted to skin it. He declined and wrote me the tag..

I learned if you call and don't tell them you shot it a sheriff will come out and they don't care if it's been shot when they get there. But to avoid any problems a knife to the throat works just fine. try to claim it was knife killed not hit by a car first would be a stretch. The one I hit a few weeks ago got the knife and left on the road. Had to get to work and no time to mess with it. Was close to a house at night didn't want to wake them with a shot.

Good to know. I figured as much. I have my CO's number in my phone so if its huge I may call first and have him come.

Insert profound nonsense here

When I looked at that job it was subcontract.
I then quickly ran away.

It is PennDOT’s job on state roads. It’s the PGC‘s job on all other roads.


Eh...wot?
