RE: Are the record books "tainted" now??
Boone and Crockett did a lot to "fix" the caribou hunting in Quebec. Apparently it was getting pretty bad up there with guys running caribou down in boats and whacking them in the water. B&C threatened to take the caribou off their list, which would have decreased the # of hunters wanting to take them. In response, Quebec tightened laws and started really enforcing fair chase. Pretty good success story for the power of the record books IMO.
