See this stuff constantly, questionable shots, unethical situations, especially from up and coming influencers, remember if they don’t have a harvest they don’t really have a show. I call it greed, they have to kill something, even if it’s questionable or borderline unethical.
I'm a libertarian at heart, but I struggle with what social media s*** like this has turned "hunting" into in the last 5+ years. Part of me thinks we'd all be better off if all hunting content was just banned on social media considering there's no way to put an end to this otherwise -- our youngest Americans literally do not know how to use discretion when they use social media, and the #1 answer among America's youth to "what do you want to be when you grow up?" is, surprise surprise, a social media influencer.
Gonna be honest, I stopped watching all of them about 3 years ago when it dawned on me they were literally selling our sport off to the highest bidder for clicks and likes.
MuleyFreak is one of the worst of them in my opinion.
And be careful, they get pissed for disparaging their name. This thread might get you sued for defamation
It is well known here that Muley Freak gives real hunting and hunters a bad name. Reposting his garbage all over the internet only gives him more views.
and yeah the influencer crowd has been devastating to the quality of outdoor recreation overall. The primary beneficiaries are the gear companies and the prostitutes like the one you posted.

Is that that the one that’s been caught for poaching twice or trespassing? If it is I can’t believe people still buy his product, course from what I’ve seen he is great at persuading his followers how innocent he is. And settling out of court to me is a full guilty plea without the full reprevautions
