It's been going on well before the internet. At least that is what Owen Walton and Mitch Rompallo told me.
Owen Walton...now there's a name I haven't heard in many years. Remember reading about his "new record buck" in Alabama Game and Fish as a teen, and being amazed. Didn't hear until years later that it was a fake. No internet back then, of course.
I wonder if anyone from this site actually knows him?
Wasnt that the guy who shot / poached his deer in Georgia and told every product name for last second shot for Alabama record?
Of course the dumbest has to be a tie for the dude that poached the bham zoo deer and then took it in to qualify for the Alabama Record Book and the idiot that broke thru Newell'S Fence on Bell Road in Montgomery and killed the huge pet deer; that was his 3rd strike as a felon and he got LIFE IN JAIL.
Walton was shed antlers he stole in Ga....or so said because the rack came up missing. He claimed to have killed it in Macon Co. Al. the best I recall.
