I don't know if it's possible for a Fred Bear to exist in today's hunting climate.

Tree Barta had several shows where he never killed anything.

I've seen a few of Randy Newberg ' s shows where he didn't get anything.
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

The area where I hunt is catch and release only. We have to use barbless bullets.

What he did was wrong and it was for greed/fame.  He got the attention he wanted with these animals and now he's getting the attention he deserves for the offenses.  I think most feel deceived and that's where a lot of the emotion comes from.  To put it in reality, it sounds like he lied on his hunting application to save some money on non-resident fees and went on someone else's land without permission.  I'm certain at least half of you have done the latter.  Nobody was hurt, raped, or harmed.  It's simple once you get past your emotions.

good point, pretty disappointing either way.  It would be certainly worse had he killed animals out of season and/or used weapons that were not open.  I bet he feels like an azz.

You didn't forget the discussions about dummy camps already, did you?  :chuckle: Tons of members admitted to breaking the law simply because it suits their purpose. Yet a few of them have shown up here with stones in hand   :rolleyes:
