Another Jlhois BOAL stolen!

What has this world come to!? You’d think he would learn. The article may be right to blame the hunter.

A Pennsylvania hunter had his buck stolen in December after leaving it unattended on public land. Some have blamed the hunter for the theft.

When I was a kid someone watched my dad leave a deer near a road (open BLM land, we assume they watched) after he had gutted it and dragged it partway to the road. He returned with help (including me) to retrieve it and it was gone, and had obviously been stolen (drag trail in snow past where he’d left it).

That was the year dad and my mom got divorced. The deer wasn’t huge (per dad) but it was really an example of a guy being kicked while he was down and it admittedly colored my perception of public land hunters for years afterwards.

I just dont get why someone would want to take another person's deer. I cant wrap my mind around it.

I'd be pretty upset if it was me.

I was not around for the original lore of the jlhois buck. However, if you have hours to spend wasting on a screen for some reason, it was pretty entertaining! Just seeing this thread title brought a smile to my face!

Thread 'Ethics in hunting, the story of my once in a lifetime Buck....'

Jan 26, 2022

As of today it has been 164 days since I shot my buck of a lifetime. It was the culmination of a lot of hard work, good friends, and some luck. I couldn’t wait to tell this story to my Grandfather, who introduced me to hunting.

The next morning, I walked up the gut wrenching reality that deer had been harvested by another. Since then it has been a roller coaster of emotions, unfortunately most of them were bad. Only now do I feel some acceptance and comfort to finally tell my story outside my circle of trust.

Selfishly, my hope is that by telling...
