I'm just stating that it's not always rainbows and unicorns just because it's legal.  We as hunters aren't always united in celebration upon legal harvest.

I’m not stating an opinion one way or the other…

…but if Joe Biden was the only guy giving the “whole official story” of how something he did went down…

I don’t know Mr Brooks and I wasn’t there.  I hope it was just as he says.  I also hope his kid has learned something.

Live your life for yourselves, people.

Tbar may  know better than I but I suspect those with more access and less restrictions may enjoy less sense of accomplishment of a harvest than others who don’t enjoy such privledge.

As Jim Shockey said, the sense of accomplishment is in direct proportion to the degree of difficulty.

Honestly, no.  However I do not fault anyone who would or did.  If I did, I would have kept the story short.  The statement from the article to the effect of you have to kill them where they are is absolutely accurate. There are other things that make one go hmm, enough so that my mind went from WOW to meh. Not throwing around any baseless accusations and not jealous.  Watching the entire thing play out,  I'm skeptical, that's all.

I'm not sure if you are discounting me or the WR bull?  Or both? Either way there's a double standard when it comes to celebration of legal harvest.

agree, and I’d say that most of the people being called jealous on this thread feel the same way.  Except, I don’t feel anyone would pass that bull up if all was legal.

Magnum brought up a great point, and where is this WR bull?

That's the problem with attracting a bunch of attention to yourself.  Once you go on a major podcast, give a magazine story and send out pics for the entire world to view, people are going to be asking questions.  We all know that and if you put yourself in that position, then you have to expect what happens, especially when it's a bit out of the ordinary to say the least.

It's out of the ordinary anymore for someone to chase a record bull only to keep it quiet just for their close friends and family to enjoy on the wall.

I may have missed it, is it confirmed that its the new world record,? I've been following the thread and have a friend who's in the neighborhood it was taken since the beginning of this drama. But haven't seem the final score and relation to other scores
