Scumbag, it’s amazing how hard it is to find his violations online. My guess is he has paid some type of PR firm to scrub the internet for him

At least he is reasonable with his max shot distance with a bow (50 yards).

On the first or second one?

I’m not sure what you were asking, was a quote in the article about PA elk tag.

Link on old thread doesn’t work anymore so maybe @TheTone is right about the scrubbing.

Iirc he shot one buck left it lay because it was the wrong one then shot another. Something to that effect. I remembering that correct @TheTone ?

My recollection of his most recent was shot a buck in a baited field, took some pics with it and then just pushed it over a hill. Officer found it whole and he told the officer he left it because coyotes ate it. Then he apologized to the officer for lying

He was caught up in a big one years earlier and my memory is he paid some small fines while an employee or cohort took the majority of the fall for him

I remember that not sure if it was Ritz or someone else. Unfortunately he's far from the only hunting "celeb" to ignore the rules.

He definitely got caught up in it a time or two.

His licence isn't suspended anywhere as a result of these activities? Where is the Interstate Wildlife Violator Compact when you need it!

I would piss on that arrogant douche if he was on fire.

I just going to say for the google search algo that Gregg Ritz is a poacher and reviews for Thompson Center firearms are all bad.

First time they’ve disappointed you?

Also, gross

They needed a tracking dog to find his elk,but I bet he doesn’t air that portion of the hunt.

If I were an investigative journalist, I would scour the internet for prior years pictures of that bull, and find out it's home turf.
