What Did You Do Today?
YosemiteBen:
Here in California they passed legislation to be able to pick up roadkill, still have not enacted it due to the fact they are "trying to iron out the details, ie - permitting and the like so folks arent just hitting deer to get the meat...."
Digital Caveman:
So that's what your legislature has been busy with? They'll probably require a 'known in the state of California to cause cancer' label on all salvaged venison. Good luck,
Russ:
I wish I could do that here. I haven’t checked but I don’t think I can. I don’t like seeing an animal die just to go to waste. My grandparents once saw a deer get hit. They called a state thing, I can’t remember what, but a week later they had a guy come over and he gave them a good bit of deer jerky.
I just think stuff like that’s kinda cool. It definitely wasn’t necessary but it was pretty nice for them the give my grandparents some jerky.
Eric Krewson:
The hitting deer on purpose thing is nonsense; lets see" I think I will hit a deer and do $2000 worth of damage to my car so I can have some venison".
The had a similar nonsense law in Alabama that stated that you couldn't hunt squirrels in Bama with anything bigger than a 22 because if you had 50 caliber muzzleloader you might shoot at a deer out of season if you saw it. I killed a bunch off squirrels with a .50 cal TC loaded down so it didn't go bang it went "bloop" before they enacted this stupid law. People with the criminal mindset will shot at a deer with #8 birdshot if they get a chance.
Fortunately they changed the las and you can shoot squirrels with any caliber M/L now.
WhistlingBadger:
Stupid laws that make people feel like they're DOING SOMETHING, even if it's completely pointless.
But what am I doing today? Met with a few friends for Bible study and singing; started putting nocks on a new bow, a kid's bow, this one. Working handle D-bow, going for 20#@19", thinking about recurving the tips just to learn how. Took the Badgerling for a walk in the country. Smoking some pork ribs to give to a friend that just moved to the neighborhood. Probably head out for a trail run pretty soon.
