I just saw quarters in the snow and got curious. Typically something in your post drives a question. Its not necessarily a gotcha question. I know what a warden for my specific hunting area told me in the past and now I want to know what your practice is.
But that seems much more difficult...
So you reported it in the field without cell reception. Then quartered it?
For someone so committed to educating people, you sure seem uncomfortable disclosing certain things and not others.
Comfortable with hot spotting though, intriguing...
You have cell reception back in that Coulee? i'm surprised you haven't explained how to legally quarter and pack out a deer in Iowa? That might help you in your cause.
But you're so good at muddling everyone else's.... Why can't we do the same when you're hot spotting places like mad?
The only reason I hadn't was in hopes of these posts disappearing into obscurity.
Found a Super-X stamped .30-40 case in the middle of a churned up elk path (while a bit turned around) back in June. Made me wonder how long the super-x line has been around (over 100 years).
