    Infuriating!!!!!!!

    I know this article was a few years ago but I just saw it, so I'm gonna say.............this pisses me off!! Is this the same Toby Bridges that posts the BS articles on North American Muzzleloader Hunting? That always slams the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation and Savage Arms? All the information I've found points to a match. I'll admit this has got me fired up, so if I'm wildly off base here let me know..........I've been wrong before. Read the article.

    bridges likes to talk up stories and stretch the truth. Highly doubt he ran over anything.

    I looked into the Lobo Watch FB page, and unless he has a twin brother that writes for NAMLH its the same person. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, you got yourself a grade A duck.

    I want to clarify something also. I have no problem with predator hunting as long as its fair chase hunting. I'm not talking about legally taken animals that's harvest falls within the set bag limits and hunting methods for the state of which you live.

    happened in 2014? takes you a while to work up a mad don't it?

    but, if it's the same Toby Bridges, he's also the idiot who put pistol grip stocks & big scopes on his T/C muzzleloaders and thought he was an 'innovator' and a big&bad macho-man and grade-A hunter.

    Being from Montana, I can say that every wolf you can kill, in any way, is appreciated. RMEF helped bring the damned things back into the state, and they have not seen a cent from me since. We've lost thousands of elk, deer, and moose to them, not to mention cattle and sheep. As far as Bridges goes, he's just a ***** for a buck and will do whatever he needs to get in print, as long as he can make a buck off of it.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    I understand how we hunters would need population control. I agree ranchers have a need for population control to protect their livestock from predation. I completely agree, but give them a quick death. I just can't wrap my brain around the reasoning behind running them down with an automobile. All the while hunters and muzzleloading enthusiasts provide him with what I would guess is a comfortable living. The only thing I can guess is that people don't know his true character. That is if he is indeed the person the article was written about.

    About predator hunting, they don't mess with May Bell and maybe they'll get to keep on breathing.

    Okay, the guy is an idiot! But looking at the provided photos, I see no evidence the front or passenger sides of that van hit anything.

    If indeed this is true and it's the same ignorant publicity hound we all know and love, he should be charged with cruelty at the very least. I find it disgusting to torment ANY creature and kill them in anything but fair chase situations and in season.

    Ol' Tobe still around? I thought everyone with any sense wrote him off years ago.
