I agree. I've met him several times over the years and think the last time was at a boat ramp when my wife and I were putting in at the same time. Everybody is not gonna agree on everything but that's what makes this place great. It's ok to have different beliefs / views and still be friends.

The jealousy and outright lies and slander posted by people on this thread is pathetic.

A friend and I hunted a huge buck that lived most of his life in an 11-12 acre wood lot behind a Wal-Mart and in between a subdivision and a old junkyard in the city limits of town. He made us look like idiots. We seen him one time in person, but had dozens of trail cam pics.
Those deer know the difference between someone out walking their dog and someone hunting them. They smell people all day long, but instantly get alerted at the scent of someone hunting them.
Good grief people, leave people and their legal methods of hunting alone. Get a life… a hobby… or just keep your pie hole shut when you feel the need to make an idiot of yourself.

Hasn't ruined anything. This forum is just a bunch of people complaining. Back when I joined it was actually a place to learn about hunting, not read a bunch of complaints about other hunters. As GRIT said, people wouldn't be talking if it was a smaller deer. Kill a 180" and people are gonna get in their feels every time. If they killed it on public, everyone would find a different reason to complain. Assumptions, rumors and accusations start flying around whenever a really big deer is killed.

There's nothing wrong with celebrating it on camera and posting the video and pics online. People like to see it. Hunting shows are nothing new. They are for entertainment. Seek One is a hunting show, and a business, and they bust their tail year round to find and kill those deer and get it all on video. They're very successful at what they do, and it obviously bothers quite a few people. Jealousy is an ugly thing.

Let someone kill that 180 on a 100 acre private farm and they will hate just as much because "YoU DiDnt kiLL It oN pUblIc LanD".
No matter how , where or what method people choose to hunt with, you always have some knuckle draggers screaming it aint real hunting or they shouldnt be hunting like that. Jealousy is real and some of yall dont look good in GREEN!!

I've noticed many of the same people ridiculing Seek1 are the same folks pissed that The Hunting public have success on public land a few months ago when that discussion was hashed out. You'll never satisfy small minded, big mouthed people.

They can be pretty dang slick. It's crazy how they seem to know the difference. You get one or two sits where it's "easy" before they catch on to you.

Not so much lies, it's more just incorrect assumptions or jumping to conclusions. I'm probably the only one in this entire forum who knows the guys from seek one, and they bust their butt year round to have a few giant bucks to maybe possibly get a crack at. There's a lot of BS to deal with hunting in the city that you don't have to deal with out on some big farm or public land. That and a 190" buck is uncommon no matter where you hunt.

Seek one could easily put all their time and money into a big farm in Iowa or a large tract of bow only public land. They'd still kill some giants and people would still find a reason to complain. But they hunt in the city instead, that's what they do. It's never an issue until a giant buck is killed, then everyone gets in their feelings.

Tame, wild, back yard, or 10,000 acre forest. Honestly if you paid for the license, got permission from the landowner, and killed it legally, what does it matter. I don't put my 2 cents in allot, mainly just cruise the board, read and learn. Hunting is in the eyes of the hunter, however you see it, whether you tracked the game for miles or set a stand in a backyard.

Trapped?? You make a lot of ASSumptions.

I just ASSumed you would walk into wal-mart and buy some scent away or a dog leash to fool those old bruisers.

So the trick to getting a city deer is to smell like a normal non-hunting person and not smell like a hunter? Do away with all the scent free soaps, sprays, and clothes and just smell like any other urbanite?

One of the biggest free range bucks I've ever seen alive was from a Walmart parking lot. Of course, that Walmart was surrounded on 3 sides by corn fields in western IA below Souix City. They had double wide gates coming off the parking lot for the combines to pick the corn.
