That’s excellent thanks for sharing. They reference a previous podcast. Do you by chance have a link to that?

Thanks for sharing...

Thought cell phone records was their slam dunk proof of guilt, but other than saying they confiscated his cell phone, they didn't mention the cell phone records...

The video in the 2nd link takes a closer look at the evidence, including the cell phone stuff, the importance of the orange string, ect..

CJ may be one of the dumbest humans on earth. Just listening to him talk makes me feel like I'm getting dumber!

Cool they showed screen shots of the buck alive, shows how impressive that buck really was on hoof... I guess second photo with red arrow shows where the bolt hit before it dropped...

That deer needs a new name… Being forgotten entirely would be harder on that guy than infamy…

Screw the idiot kid that shot it, but that buck deserves to be recognized, it's about a wild (not penned) incredible animal, not the poacher... I wonder if the ODNR with enter it in the records books as a pick-up, they have others and if they do how will the split left G2/G3 be scored as common base... The Zaft Buck comes to mind...

Now that I think about it was at a sports show in Ohio a few weeks ago and the ODNR usually have a booth when shows are in Columbus but didn't think to look if they were there at that one...

I was not aware that the buck was being baited with corn. This interview was the first i heard of that.

So much for the notion that "baiting doesn't work for big mature bucks."

One of the most amazing parts of this whole thing is that that guy was able to kill that buck.

First, the entire poaching aspect sucks and the guy is a tool. That being said, one of the worst aspects to me was him publicly tearing the GW apart after he confessed to poaching the deer. Total D-Bag to try and publicly hurt GW reputations all while knowing he had already confessed. The 2nd video is great.
