On one visit to Podunk, he asked my husband and I if we would like to join him on a late evening stakeout with his decoy. Now decoys are not to be over six points here, as some judge considered placing a fake 12-pointer, on the side of any road, major entrapment. He placed the largest 6-pointer (I'm talking Boone and Crockett) I've ever seen on the side of the road and we basically played hide and wait. He was pumped. Several cars slowed down and a few even turned around for a return trip. Thankfully, no one shot at the decoy. During our 'stake-out' he described some of the authority granted to game wardens in our state. They can seize your vehicle, guns, and any property you have in your vehicle at their whim. I was almost scary. We basically decided to believe his new stance - that he was far superior to us - and our friendship has waned over the years. No big loss.
