Charleston archer bags trophy trio

Monday, October 20, 2008

Bobby Warner is no stranger to trophy animals. The lawyer from Charleston has taken many big-game trophies over the years, most of them with the bow. But he’s never started a hunting season quite as well as he started the current one. In twelve days’ time, he bagged two trophy white-tailed buck and a trophy pronghorn.

Warner’s story, and photos of his kills, can be seen in the Sunday Gazette-Mail.

Fur coat, shmur coat — Bambi wants a blanket!

Winters in Greenbrier County can be a bit chilly, but they’ve never been so cold that deer started stealing blankets. This year could be an exception. A white-tailed doe recently made off with not one, not two, but three blankets from a Beech Ridge backyard!

Beech Ridge resident Jeanette Thomas witnessed the doe’s odd behavior, which lasted about two weeks. Sunday’s Gazette-Mail outdoors column has the entire story and a photo.
