An area know well for people that tend to bend the rules, (poachers) had a new warden assigned to the area to clean up things and get them under control. The first day on the job, the new warden asked the people in town who the biggest poacher was and he set a plan with his staff to stake out the man's cabin in the woods and catch him. The next morning the warden lay waiting in the early morning darkness for the poacher to start his day. Just at daylight, smoke started coming from the cabin's chimney and a few minutes later the door opened and the poacher hollered out, "Warden come up here and have a cup of coffee, it's cold out there this morning. Knowing that someone on his staff had warned of the sting operation, he went up and had a cup of coffee with the poacher. The next operation, the warden did not say a word to anyone, including his wife, and set up in the same hiding place as the last time. As morning broke, smoke came from the chimney and a few minutes later the poacher hollered out "Warden, that is just damn foolish, come up and have a cup of coffee" and again the warden gave up and went for coffee. The same scenario went on for years, and the two after sharing stories and so many cups of coffee, became pretty good friends. Years later with the poacher on his death bed, the warden went in to visit, and asked the poacher, "I have got to know, how did you find out that I was going to be there each time I staked out your cabin. The poacher smiled, and said, I didn't know whether or not you were there. I just stepped out and hollered to you every morning, and if you didn't come for coffee, I went hunting.

That self incrimination will bite you every time.

BTW..... The poacher could have shot quite a few more deer, but he said that it was a new rifle, and he didn't want to take any long shots until the barrel was broken in. That cost me a couple of nice deer also.

In or out of season, daylight or dark?

Didn't want to strain the new barrel?

Yes, nothing over 100 yds.
