This is an interesting topic. I don't know if the guy is a scam artist or not. Two guys from Grand Rapids that hunt on some land that I also bowhunt on told me he was tipped off by Milo Hansen, and with the way Hansen acted when this deer was first harvested I have to wonder a little bit myself. This wasn't the first big deer that Mitch Rompala has harvested either. It's odd that he refused to have the skull x-rayed many have pointed the reasoning at Hansen for tipping him off, but at the same time it's kida odd that this whole contraversy has been hush hush ever since then. I know the locals up there believe it's real, and some have even came out and said they'd seen a big deer in that area that he was supposely harvested. I'm neutral on the topic. I wouldn't put it past him or Hansen to be a little shady over this buck.

What exactly does "tipping him off" mean? I'm just a dumb hillbilly so you have to spell things out for me that everyone else understands.

Ok watch the video, for all the "It's Real" people I have one questions.

1.Where is the Blood?

I see zero blood, a deer will always blows bloodout his nose on a D-lung shot. Where is the blood on the ground? Oh where oh where has the blood gone?

Show me the blood[&:]

He doesn't allow it to be scored or inspected. Therefore as far as I'm concerned, it doesn't exist.

Why doesn't everybody just leave that poor bastard alone ? What he may or may not have killed is no one's business but his own . How would you like 2 million strangers poking their noses up your keister ?
