    Has anyone here had any personal interactions with Chris before piling on? lol I have done some bowfishing/filming with him... while he dresses like a tool (so does half the industry with rhinestone studded jeans and affliction shirts), he is a hell of a shot and doing what he can to make a living in the industry that we all wish we could. That said, I'd certainly never call him up to hang out anytime soon. It was humorous we had to edit out any footage showing him smoking a cigarette, because that is much simpler than him just not smoking.

    Another point of clarification is that he didn't leave Arrow Affliction... he was canned from Arrow Affliction.

    I've never really heard of the guy, so I've been looking around online about him. Yep, he's a rump bandit for sure.

    After I saw him crying about how the Outdoor Channel gave Jim Shockey millions to do the show uncharted I wrote him off since I already didn't like him. This was the icing on the cake when I saw it on facebook. This guy is a loser.

    Yes. Talked to him numerous times at shows and he's also been up to my resort before I bought it with some really great dudes.

    He seems like the stereotypical guy that wears affliction type clothing. I don't associate with people like that for the most part, and was shocked by just how many industry people dress/behave that way at the first few shows I went to.

    I agree it's hilarious he would belittle fans for asking about details on a hunt HE asked people to book on his own page. haha

    He actually sells a beard, mustache, and sideburn trimmer on his site. Just in case you get bored while you're in your stand. You can start taking off some of that unwanted chest hair you've been accumulating since you turned into a man.

    Chris Brackett Fear No Evil Merchandise

    I have a few rules that I live by. Right or wrong, it's how I roll.

    1. If you put "product" in your hair, and at the same time are a male. We're probably not going to get along.

    2. If you shape your "hairdo" into a shark fin or "bedhead". We're probably not the same type of folk. I find that in general, people with "bedhead" hairdos, really enjoy laying around in bed, and simply put too much effort into looking like they don't care.

    3. If you trim your beard into some non-traditional weirdness, you're not my kinda' cat.

    4. If you show me the "hookem' horns" sign and you're not at a Texas football game, we're probably not listening to the same type of music.

    A lot like the "affliction" t- shirts from a couple of years ago, this guy will be out of style by the time we get done laughing. What doesn't go out of style? Class, tradition, and skills.

    Good points......but there is no way in heck that I would ruin my recreation by making it a job. I would not ever want to do what he is doing for a living.

    One of my fellow Antler King pro staffers is in sales for Elite Archery. I'm withholding his name since he isn't writing the post. Mr Brackett approached him today at Deerfest in Wisconsin and said "tell your boss he can go **** himself!" Apparently Chris isn't happy that elite passed on a sponsorship deal for him. Stay classy Mr Brackett. :)

    Not impressed. Tough luck, and bad move on his part. The reality is that he will survive this as long as producers got money, and the neilson ratings show his sponsors are selling products.
