Deadhead Bucks

[BIKER13]

Next thing you know we’ll have to apply for a permit to pick up coins off the pavement or sidewalks. What a load of crap.

covid keeps that from happening now.

Wow I’ve hunted my whole life in Georgia and never heard anything about it being illegal to hunt for sheds or pickup a skull with horns.

Would really like to hear the answer from DNR on this one as well as see where anyone has been charged for doing it. I could somewhat understand if it’s state or federal land but a private club or your own property should be fair game

wow didn't know that

What a load of crap. I have picked up literally hundreds o we the years. Who cares?

Another reason to hate the law…

I get frustrated with that North woods law show…some of it is good but some of those Yankees laws are nuts

 

[boinky]

I called DNR many times. They have yet to return my call. I'm pretty sure they dont give a **** about this buck.

Not an issue in Georgia. I have several good ones we’ve found rabbit hunting over the years. We are fortunate here in Georgia that DNR doesn’t over regulate hunting to this extreme

From the article:

"States where I can confirm you need a salvage permit, which is usually free and available online, include Arkansas, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, and Pennsylvania. There are likely others."

And:

"In a few states, one being New Jersey, it is illegal to pick up and possess a deer skull with antlers at any time. If you’re out shed hunting and find a deadhead, you’re supposed to leave it. This makes no sense to me, but the authorities say the law is designed to cut down on poaching."

Calling your mother is probably a state-regulated activity in New Jersey.

Nobody likes New Jersey

In Jersey, anything's legal as long as you don't get caught
