Poacher comes clean….

[AT Hiker]

On a "200 poached buck….

Just started this podcast and I must say, I am intrigued. I haven't formed my opinion yet but so far it's got me thinking pretty deep.

Been a very interesting story so far! About half way through it. Respect to the guy for telling it

I wrapped up part 1. I respect the dude too. Sounded genuine and his admission on having to come clean with his friends and family sounded like it built his character.
Then mentioning the weight that had been lifted once he came clean with the wardens was wild too. He knew he was caught as soon as he released the arrow.

Interesting listen for sure. Not the typical poacher perspective. IMO it sounds like a morally solid man who got overwhelmed with temptation and made a mistake. He owned it and accepted the consequences. This situation is far cry different than most slimeball poachers who make it common practice for themselves.

Pretty good so far. Waiting on part 2

 

[Bone Collector]

Does anyone know when part 2 comes out?

Pretty interesting perspective

Pretty interesting perspective

Sure is. No pretention at all and not holding back or making excuses. Hard not to like the guy. Seems he screwed up and is owning it.

Part 2
Before going down
Another rabbit hole

This is a great podcast. Thanks for sharing. Big deer make good people do dumb things but this guy right here could not bear the weight. VERY interesting perspective.

 

[Bone Collector]

When is part 2 coming out?

 

[Bone Collector]

Ok I got on the podcast. Part 2 isn't out, but it looks like they discuss part one in the latest episode so I'd assume it will be soon

This is a great podcast in general for you guys who have never listened to it. He does a series on Daniel Boone that had some really cool stuff I never knew. Also has a really interesting series with a game warden that went undercover for years to bust a poaching ring. Good way to pass windshield time.

At the heart of this is that you know he is guilty, but of what exactly... that's the part that makes me think a bit.

Is what he did unethical? I don't know... Was what he did wrong? That's a clear yes.

The distinction there is important. Speeding is illegal, but isn't necessarily unethical.


Many people probably could have killed that buck in the same manner he did. That's the part to me that edges into morality. There were many hunters chasing that deer the right way, and he stole that opportunity from them. I think the fact that he talks about it so candidly now is incredible.

Fascinating listen. Clay is easily my 2nd favorite meateater.
