Mostly agree, if it's true what a joke. Down right embarrassing and pathetic. But I don't totally agree with the tags stance, but can CERTAINlY see is point and agree in part.

That pretty much echo's my thoughts as well. As I recall, the "spider bull" of Utah was taken under similar circumstances, but I might be wronge :-k

In my personal opinion hunting is beginning to become a rich mans sport, if you have the money you'll be in the books. I'm not saying that the average joe doesn't bag some trophy animals because we do but its because we work our butts off to get it. That's just my opinion

I agree with everybody,it has become a rich mans sport now aday.If you have the money alls you have to do anymore is show up and pull the trigger,IMO its not even hunting and I would be ashamed to even be involed with something like that and the spider bull is a perfect example of one of these situations :>/

I'm just a bit confused.

An outfitter is paying local land owners to restrict access? Does this mean these sheep are on private land or that the only way to get to public land is through private land?

I took notice to where it says this type of hunting is going to "re-write the records books." It gives the recent BC animals in the books the "baseball steriod era" feel to them. Its to bad people feel that chasing animals down with helicopters is hunting. Not only is this unethical in my book but it makes hunters look terrible.

I would love to see b&c record book pull the record status on animals like this if it is true. How can that be considered fair chase hunting?
