Do they give a $1000 reward for a low fence 130" deer on someone's property?

Hope they get whoever did this. Pretty recognizable rack.

Pretty sure they do, OGT

Can't give any examples though

Which will get you in more trouble, poaching a deer or shooting someones livestock? To me that deer was livestock. Maybe the poaching charge is worse. They need to charge the person with whatever will do the most damage.

I hope they catch the POS(s) that did that and in regards to JustinJ’s post, I hope Freestone County GW focuses efforts on all deer poached in that county.

One thing is for sure. A big rack will make an otherwise good man do some stupid things.

Or robbing someone's house.

I like how they try to be dramatic and say "Only the head was taken and the carcass left to waste"

Give us a break. The antlers on that thing were 99.5% of the deer worth. Lets not pretend for one second that buck was grown for it's meat.

That said, get a rope. It takes balls to climb, cut (however) a HF and shoot then steal the head of a buck like that.

Don't much like poachers and horse/cattle thieves.

$1000 for a reward but not $53K fine/restitution...

I see what you did there
