This is what happens when deer are allowed to age. I have been shown trail cam pics of several deer in that class from north of Mckinney. There are more killed every year I'm sure that you never hear about. It seems like every time you hear about a good buck killed in Collin County the game warden is always in full investigation mode. What prompted the visit from the game warden in this case that merited it to need to be checked out?
Good question. From what I've read and heard, they like to find out where it was killed so they can try to lease it or get permission to hunt there themselves. If that's not the reason, why don't they visit every hunter that kills a buck to make sure they followed the law?
