Ok fellas, a neighbor of mine invited me to go with him elk hunting a few years back where he at the last minute wanted me to pull horses. The next year I drew a 1st rifle and he drew a muzzle loader bull tag but wanted to go with me after he returned from his hunt in Sept. So I reluctantly agreed then a few days before we are to leave he wants me to drag those dang horses a 1000 miles up there. He bought only 2 of 10 tanks of gas . I did kill a elk and he said his services should take care his share of the gas. Now as you can imagine I've kind of had my fill of this fella . Now recently he wanted (over anxiously)help me with some work on my deer lease only to find out that he expected tresspass prevledges in return so I told him not to worry about it . Now this fella goes to CO. every year to elk hunt either muzzle loader or rifle. While riding home from the last trip I asked what he did when he didn't draw he said he would buy a archery and go during muzzleloading season....ya know what I mean. He said he has never been checked out of camp. Well this year he didn't draw and his plan is to hunt with an archery tag while using a muzzle loader. Should I put a bug in the right folks ear?

Why bother. Just disassociate yourself for good. He'll get found out soon enough most likely.

Dumb bastard, if you’re gonna break the law at least use a center fire.

The way thi fella talked down to me when I declined his offer it was tough to walk away. He is a thief and a slight on law abiding sportsman .

Pretty simple, tell him you don't roll with poachers.

2 kinds of white guys I hate. Poachers and cranksters. Often they are one and the same.

I'd have disassociated long ago. Are you hard up for friends?

Take him. Haul his horses up the hill.
Then shoot his horse and tell him you thought is was an elk.
Problem solved.

Shoot him while he rides the horse.
Dress the corpse up in a yeti costume.
Tell the cops you thought a yeti was molesting the horse.

You deserve an ass kicking. The guy has 49 post since 2012 -vs- your count. It is weighing heavily on him. I sure wouldn’t hunt with him again and put your assets and ass at risk of being confiscated, jailed, or fined.

The way thi fella talked down to me when I declined his offer it was tough to walk away. He is a thief and a slight on law abiding sportsman . If he was talking down to you, perhaps you should have straightened him out there. As someone else said, a mention that you don't hang with poachers would have been appropriate at that point. Does his wife, your wife's friend, understand the import of her husband's actions?

It’s a stated plan, he hasn’t done it yet.
Disassociate from him, keep out of it.
The guy lives a mile down the road, drop a dime on him and he suspects who did it was you, you’ll have a long-term enemy, right down the road, and the guy’s an idiot.

He’s probably on here reading this. Maybe it will make the next conversation easier.
