A friend of mine found 2 locked bucks in a creek bottom (Arcadia, WI area)during the '11 gun season. Both bucks were big(160+), he had to fork over $500 to keep them. I guess the CO came up with an estimated value by calling a few taxidermists. Stupid!

That's why I said I bet they don't get many calls with dead bucks very often at that cost. What does a resident tag cost?


A couple non hunting wives buy tags to use on said locked bucks.
:shhh:
