Default Infamous Poacher Running for Directors Seat in APOS

Thought this might be of interest to the members of this forum. It’s come to my attention that Lloyd Mcmahon (Great White Holdings) has decided to run for a directors position within APOS.

That won't do their credibility any good, if he's elected.

He is likely the most convicted poacher in Alberta. No organization with any ethics or integrity would even allow him to be a member.

Mine was probably 5+ years ago. Was with my future father-in-law and my wifes cousin, ended up chatting with him after he set up a group of americans for a goose hunt. My wife cousins mossberg was having a problem ejecting its shells so he took a look at it and that was it.

Not long after we found out about his charges lol.

Ran into him on private property, said he was chasing a wounded deer and had permission to be there. I was out 2 days prior and had not heard a single shot either day so I knew his story was BS. Unfortunately he was gone before F&W could respond.

Poachers do tend to kill a lot of deer.
I think if he wins he will fit right in.

Exactly! It's easy to kill big deer if you don't let things like the regulations get in your way.

I didn't hear about that one but there was one in the mid 80's that had a bullet through a wing strut and his name was involved. Bunch of things in that crash didn't add up.

We should be more concerned about the directors/executive that represent the resident hunter imo.
And what they are doing/have done. Or not.
