Monster Poached near Cannon Falls, MN

[shooter72]

Has anyone heard about a monster deer that was poached by Cannon Falls, Minnesota. I have heard that there is a picture of it floating around, however I have not seen it. Apparently, it was shot and taken into the taxidermist. The taxidermist then turned the person that shot it into the DNR when he noted that it was shot with a gun instead of bow and arrow. Seems like an interesting story.

I believe that's the 8pt that grossed 190" The thing is incredibly massive. It was supposedly taken by bow but the update on Boone-Crockett says DNR confiscated it because it was poached.

That is a HUGE HUGE 8-point! Unfortunately, it gets said over and over: stupid "hunters" make the rest of the hunting population pay the price for their acts. These stories disgust me - hopefully the non-hunting population don't think every hunter acts this way. I'd be the first one to turn in someone that I knew was acting illegally in taking game.

Unreal deer right there. Too bad the way it was taken.

Yep, absolute monster 8 point....

The story is the guy had already shot 2 deer prior to this one and did not tag either of them....one buck and a doe....when he shot the second buck some people that knew about the previous deer turned him in. Idiot.
