    The next lease weekend should be “interesting” to say the least.

      If you have a No Kill List. Then you need to have a list of consequences for not following the camp rules. For instance, if you shoot a deer on the No Kill List, then your hunting privileges will be immediately and permanently revoked without any refund.

          Sounds like a can of worms to me. I'm way to old to have someone telling me what I can kill and what I cannot. Fortunately I hunt my own land with Sil's and Grand kids.

              For the record, we have no lease agreement. We are a group of hunters that mutually agree on harvesting mature deer!!! We set the age to 5.5yr old deer. The deer that is being discussed was without a doubt 5.5yrs old. He was the ONLY 5.5 year old deer on the no kill list the OP speaks of. But what he failed to mention is the multiple discussions we had about moving him to the KILL LIST!

              I will admit that with us having a tenative kill/no kill list that its unfair to send an arrow at a deer EVERYONE has not talked about. Im the only person that has seen that deer this year. Age was not a question , the deer met all lease requirements other than the OP’s (maybe hell blow up at 6.5) He walked out infront of me 200+lbs and about 145” of antler. I had the opportunity and I took it. As for him nonchalantly calling me a liar, I didnt tell anyone about the deer simply because I spent 20+ hrs searching sick to my stomach about the reality I may not find him. Its something ill never stop thinking about, All I can do is pray he lives. I hope this clears up some of the “mud” I am a 100% team player but rules have to be across the board. There can not be a grey area or exceptions on deer just because they dont meet your standards. P.S this is something that should have been discussed with myself and the other 7 members on the lease prior to going to a social forum!
              Get back out there and shoot him again. Then find a lease for next year without Mickey Mouse lists and random knee jerk rules that destroy hunting, or better yet hunt public land. There are a few leases that properly implement management rules based on real data and succeed at improving the herd, most are just a bunch of guys playing the part because they were told it's cool and they stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.

                      Mr Miller, Im not choosing sides on this cluster F but I will say you lost a lot of credibility when you shot and didnt recover a deer and didnt tell anyone about it.

                        You were reading my mind....

                          By the length of this thread, just trying to get the facts straight...I'd say it sounds like there are communication problems. Get that resolved, and you'll reduce issues like this in the future.

                            I'm always late to the dang party.
                            Shooting this questionable deer and then not telling people you did seems like a pretty sure fire way to **** people off...
                            While the OP's communication skills are lacking, it sounds like Mr. Miller did something he knew would or might **** people off. Surprise

                              There needs to be a THB court to settle matters like this.
