    Need the be "beat with a wet noodle..."

    I screwed the pooch today and figured this was the best place to take my licks. I dropped the hammer on an 8 that was way too young and way to narrow in an antler restriction county. I feel like hell about it and really have no excuse or reason...I hadn't seen a deer all day and when I ranged him at 175 he looked good. A shot and short walk later and I was on the phone with the game warden apologizing for costing him a trip up the hill on a Sunday.

    The worst part is that I had been trying to explain the new restrictions to my daughter while we were on the stand the day before and then I went and did this. The game warden is a great guy, very professional and said he should "beat me with a wet noodle...", then he wrote me up and we had an hour or so BS session.

    I admire you for your ethics. Your daughter should be proud.

      My BIL and I were talking about that this weekend, he is one that will take chances on a close one...not me. What's the fine on it?

        I got lucky this time, I think it helped that I self-reported, but he let me off with a warning and when he found out my brother is in law enforcement as well he added a threat of physical violence if we meet over "business" again in the future.
