    I am not fond of him for a few select reasons:
    1. He gut shots a lot of deer on national tv
    2. He celebrates gut shots like he 12 ringed the deer
    3. I once read a post of his where he told a fan not to support Diamond(such a lack of professionalism)
    4. Too cocky for my liking

    No idea who he is so I won't judge. However the response on FB was a bit over the top. There's a class litterally called "Managing Emotions Under Pressue" that I think would be fitting. I also notice now days it seems like puncuation and grammar are used as often as turn signals in cars.

    There is not a hunting show on TV that cracks the top 250 in the neilson ratings, Honey Boo Boo reruns are more highly rated than the most watched TV hunter

    And then there is this latest scandal. Poaching a buck in Indiana.

    This guy is the biggest ****** out there. Just stumbled on this. Stay classy CB.
    You can skip to about the 6:00 mark. Word is (from what I've heard) is he took some photos and left both out to rot. Told the land owner it's in Gods hands now. Vids are being taken down, not sure how long this one will be up.

    Seen one post today where Mossy Oak is dropping him. I'm sure his other sponsors will follow suit.

    What a puke.

    What a horrible shot to take on the SECOND buck also. As if, poaching wasn't bad enough. What little I ever saw of him, made me think he was a total idiot. I guess my first impression was pretty solid.

    Never even heard of this guy, but he doesn’t seem to be a good representation of what hunting and archery is all about.

    I want the camera man punished and dragged through the ringer if the Lacey Act is good to go on this case. HE IS 100% JUST AS GUILTY AS CHRIS, maybe a lessor degree but guilty the moment he chose to not report the violation.

    Bracket never acted or carried himself in a way that made me think of what he professed to be; a sportsman, a Christian and a good man. This was sadly my derived opinion of him prior to this ever even coming out....and I'd be lying if I said the video surprised me. Wasn't shocked at all. I also have no doubt at some point we are going to get a video or written statement from Bracket in some way trying to justify it or we will get a shallow apology about how he was raised better and let everyone down and he is a better man....I truly believe he is sorry for one thing; getting caught.

    Bloodsport Archery may have just gained a supporter yesterday from me as they were extremely quick to cut ties with Chris promptly after they watched the two videos...EVERY company connected in any way to him needs to do the same thing.

    The sport/hobby/passion of hunting is only as clean as we collectively make it and by being connected in any fashion to Chris Brackett now in my opinion is as anti-hunting as supporting PETA.


    **Also.....as quickly as he did this poaching without hesitation. I'd bet everything to my name this is not the first time...this is the first time we know about.

    From what I have seen online, so far Bloodsport, Mossy Oak, Scentlok, Spartan Camera, and Elite Archery have already cut ties
