Muley Freak in trouble?

He was a door to door salesman. No kidding. He knocked on my sister's door and tried to sell her something.

Utah? I’d bet it was pest control, security system or solar panels. That states loves those sales especially if it’s built into a pyramid scheme

Just went to this Aram’s Facebook page. His 5 part series on his explanation actually makes him look worse than the other couples account. I love how he admits small parts of him being wrong but in the end doesn’t own it. Textbook liar.

700 plus yard shot without taking a range? Wow. Screw it make rifle seasons open sights only, at least maybe in utah

I think we are slowly headed that direction with the demand for tags and advanced equipment/technology. I’m all for it. A little reduced success rates might weed out some of the problems too.

I think my parents got an action shot of him out on the job...

That explains a lot.

However sales can be a very lucrative career path, if your good at it.

Hey guys. It’s your last chance for a free hat.

There’s gotta be a catchy phrase in there somewhere:

All hat and no deer

All hat and no gear

All hat and lots of gear

Holler if your deer has a collar!

I'm not for open sights only. Would probably be met with issues from the visually impaired and I think you'd still have a ton of crippled deer from people taking low odds shots with their new open sights. Would be a lot of deer wounded that would have been killed clean with a scope IMO.

Hunters in general are just terrible at shooting and have been led to believe they can just buy a range finder or ballistic turret and shoot a long ways. I'd be all for a 400 or 500 yard max legal range. Of course it would be ignored by some but it would help i think..

I am following along here and don't recall if anything has been mentioned about him turning the collar in to UT DWR...i would think he would have to at some point if not already

 

[Mountain Man]

When he said the deer he shot didn’t have a collar it would have been game over

Harder to see a collar at 700+ yards. It’s crazy to me the ranges both of these hunters were shooting at. Especially if you can’t reload and relocate the target yourself.

I think the max range thing would be the most doable thing and the most reasonable. I'd bug my legislators about that if it came up.

How could it be enforced? Nearly impossible I imagine.

Plenty of rules can't be enforced unless you're caught in the act. Biggest thing would be that those long range shooters couldn't advertise and post about it and encourage sub-par hunters/shooters to do the same.

Anyway, rules and laws are only good for those who follow them.

There are some solid, and I mean SOLID memes on this thread, which is now locked but really good stuff.

Does anyone know Aram Von Benedikt? He apparently writes for Outdoor Life. It appears that while hunting in Utah on a General Season rifle hunt he decided to steal a buck that was shot by another hunter and was actively getting tracked. It's all over the socials. He has a rebuttal story, but...

Holy hell that was a good laugh. Post #432 gets my vote

It may have been mentioned here but he writes for Outdoor Life.

I just sent them my thoughts.
