So if you shoot an illegal deer and then call the lease manager and tell him, and then tell the lease manager you are not going to tag it.....
Geez, how dumb can you be? He kept saying it was a mistake and he felt really bad. He was told to contact the GW and guess he thought it was a bad idea, and drove home. He got a visit by the GW at home and deer was in bed of truck and not tagged, nor did it meet AR. Then sends text saying he asked why he got visit.
He is upset because he thought all was good, and hopes to stay on the lease. Hmm

He pulled the trigger, then doesn't want to deal with the aftermath. Actions have consistences and he would have been done hunting for at least the year if I was the LM. Mistakes happen, but you DONT have to pull the trigger.JMO

Wait until he gets the civil restitution for the illegal buck. Base cost for any illegally taken buck is $881.50 to start, then it is scored by Boone & Crockett the get the overall B&C score and charged accordingly for replacement.
Some just don't get it - absolutely, if you are not 100% sure that the buck inside spread is over 13", don't pull the trigger.

There are consequences for our actions. This person is clearly too immature to accept that fact.

Just admit you did the wrong thing, say you're sorry, and all accountability will be removed.
Wonder where he learned that? Couldn't have been from our leaders.
If you're not 100% sure, don't pull the trigger.

Apparently some responsible, law-abiding citizen who wishes to comply with state regulations as part of a licensed lease property.

Sounds like Dummy is learning an expensive lesson, and get's to move to a new lease next year.

It could have been dealt with IMO without calling the GW on him. I believe people think its easier to just let someone else deal with the problem. As a lease manager you are taking on responsibilities and there are not always fun. Again that just my opinion!

A good lesson in knowing the difference between responsibility and accountability. Being responsible just means you did it, while accountability means paying a price as a result.
Perhaps a better a choice of action was to give him the choice of the price to be paid. Call the GW and accept the cost, or consider it your last season on the lease. Either way, a price has been paid. This may also have been in the mind of the lease manager when he told him to report it to the GW. He may also allow him to return after he pays his fines.
Like so many these days, it appears he didn't like being held both responsible AND accountable.

Hmm. Interesting points.
If this had been a more serious crime, what would you say? Also, no money was sought after, and by the way, lease manager didnot call GW. Happened to be one of the youngest members who was brought up as a kid to respect all laws.
There have been several other issues with during the past 2 years. He has shot and wounded several nice bucks, never recovered any of them, and after the 3rd one last yer i told him he should concern himself with a doe. He didnt and knocked another buck down that was recovered much later. Has done same this year. He wants to hunt with a 12 gauge and rifled slugs out of a smooth bore anddoes not a rifle. No biggie, i grew up in Louisiana and shotgun is a very effective weapon, but know limitations.
Wandering around lease and in other people's areas. Each person has their own area and another must have permission to go to another's area. He has been on lease for 2 years and out of 9 hunters, only 3 people knew who he was, and one of the 3 just met him last week.

Sounds like he's had more than enough time to stop making mistakes that can be easily avoided.

I have no problem with someone calling the GW, Good "ole" boy hunting has it limitations and it seems he was given options, sooo.
