A retired deputy sheriff, deputized as a game warden, set up a small RV trailer at a county road turnoff that led to several ranches. He took a truck-killed buck and after gutting it, stuffed it with hay and braced the legs. It was set up in a nearby pasture.
He made several night-time arrests, that season. We got some good laughs from the deal. One poacher not only emptied his rifle, he reloaded and kept shooting--puzzled as to why the deer did not go down.
