Did the GW actually have them pulled over or was he just driving by them s-l-o-w-l-ey??

I may have a scoop!

[Huntindad]

So Middleton and I are headed back to Dallas after one heck of a good time at the semi-famous El Rancho Stovall (ERS). We pass a trooper who has a guy pulled over and I say "Man they really work this stretch in here... you really gotta be careful."

Seconds later....



Yep... apparently the license plate got knocked off at Ben's place.



We are having fun with the good officer and are doing what we do (take pictures of our silly adventures). Of course the officer wants to know if we had any luck, so we show him our tagged guest of honor.



He asks me where the rest of the deer is and when I tell him its in the ice chest, he gets a little excited and calls some buddys who happened to be in the nighborhood.



At this point I'm thinking this is just a fun way to chat with the local officers on the ride home... after all, I have a brand new hunting license and properly tagged game... I had no clue what was going to happen next...



While Middleton recieves a warning for lack of a license plate, I get not one but two citations from the game wardens.

Last night Mary wanted to practice deboning a ham since her boys usually process her deer for her. I never gave it a second thought as we loaded a baggie full of tenderloins and boned out the hams while talking about carne guisada recipes. Officially I'm cited for processing my deer beyond quartering before my final destination. Then, to top it off, although I tagged my deer properly, I had forgtten to write it on the back of my license log.

Score card:

Middleton a warning for not having a license on his trailer.

Leggett: Two citations with a properly tagged animal and some meat I'm not very interested in eating any more.



The officers knew about this website and asked Michael if he thought this would paint them in a bad light. I guess they understood they were being a bit "ticky tacky" with the decision to actually cite me while the trooper decided to issue a warning. I filled out the tag while the officer watched me and yet he still chose to cite me. Honestly, I have always been thankful game wardens were out there doing what they do but after today, I was left with a "us against them" feeling that I don't think I'll lose any time soon. Of course, they are just enforcing the laws... that is what they are paid to do.

Great story!!

Apparently, I saw a different white chevy pulling what may have been a Mule or a 4 Wheeler with a female driver. Were they part of ya'lls group??

[jkf123]

Great story!

[kfd82]

Looks like they didnt care they were getting their picture taken. I figured the DPS and GW's wouldnt take too kindly to that.

Just a memorable ending to a great weekend.

Dang, that bites! Maybe y'all should have stopped at Mary's with me and maybe you would not have met these fine officers because I didn't see any highway patrol when I came through.
