Two Nebraska men were caught November 13, 2005 with two antlered deer that had been shot with rifles. Jamey Vornbrock, 29, of Tekamah, Neb., and Mark Bolin, 38, of Omaha, Neb., were caught by Iowa Department of Natural Resources conservation officers as they attempted to leave a field, west of Mondamin, and head back to Nebraska.
Neither individual had an Iowa deer tag or small game license. �These guys knew what they were doing,� said DNR conservation officer Dave Tierney.
Tierney, along with a fellow conservation officer, confiscated a Browning 9 mm pistol, a Weatherby Vanguard .300 Magnum rifle, a Weatherby Mark V 7 mm rifle, a Kawasaki 650 All-Terrain Vehicle, two antlered deer and various other items. Charges are pending.
Tierney said one of the antlered deer would score right around 150 points, which is an important score total when assessing fines. If the deer has a gross score of more than 150, the maximum fine could be $20,000. If it scores under 150, the maximum fine could be $10,000.
