This story of this idiot is just amazing, hard to believe this moron fabs up this story and worst claims to be a navy seal!!!

A liitle history. It seems like Rowdy photoshopped this brown bear picture and passed it off as his own......but got caught!!!

"Rowdy Dowdy-

Just wanted to thank everyone again for their continued support amd following me through the season on here!! Also wanted to give a short story/follow-up of the events that occured last week...

Last week me and a good buddy of mine/videographer "Mike" jumped into a 16' zodiak and put well over 450 nautical miles on in a matter of days in search of a bear.. After having my spine beat to hell by the Alaskan Coastal waters for almost 100 miles one way, we started runnin into bears.. Mostly blacks but i knew a few places that the Browns would cruise the beach during low tide.. On day one we saw 4 black bears.. Day 2 brought decent weather and a lot more bear sightings.. 7 black bears and 4 brown bears but the 4 were not as big as others Ive taken in the past.. Not sure exactly what time but late afternoon around 6pmish, i spotted a big blondish colored bear walking a mile and a half long beach from 2 miles out.. The wind was good for an approach to the beach within a few hundred yards of the bear.. Once I put the boat on the beach, Mike got off and started settin up his tripod as I anchored the Zodiak.. Once our only ride was taken care of, I ran down the beach in the direction of the bear and set up behing a massive drift log on the upper portion of the beach and Mike set up 50 yds behind me on a hill to film the bear walking the entire length to me.. I put a Go Pro Hero 3 on the beach facing the bear about 10 yards out and 15 yards to my left.. When the bear approached I knew he'd be 20 yards or less... The wind was great and from previous hunts experience I knew he wouldnt know i was there!! Once i ranged him at 30 yards to my left i knew the Go Pro on the beach would be picking him up and turned on the Contour camera I ziptied to my Prime Centroids riser and looked back at Mike and got a big thumbs up telling me one thing, He was rolling footage and on the bear!! The bear walked directly over the Go Pro on the beach and got broadside at about 10 yards, but from previous experiences I knew not to draw til after he walked by and then take the quartering away shot.. Which is exactly what happend.. He took a few more steps, I drew back, settled the pin and let it go!! He whirled his head around to his right side where the arrow entered and started to bite like all my other coastal bears had done on my past hunts!! He ran back down the beach where he came from about 40 yards, I nocked another arrow.. He stopped and faced my direction as I ranged him but he was already spitting up massive amounts of blood and could tell it wasnt gonna be much longer til he was on the ground so the last thing I wanted to do was put another arrow in him to give him another burst of adrenaline! It wasnt another 20 seconds and he fell to the beach and I could hear him take his last few breaths of life..

At the end of it, I took the largest Coastal Brown Bear I'd ever seen.. He squared out at 10' 4" with an unofficial skull measurment of 28.5"

He's not a world record by any means but he is my biggest bear to date!! Probably the only way to kill a bigger bear would be to draw a really awesome Kodiak Island tag.. But you never know!!

Dall Sheep, Stone Sheep, Barren Ground Caribou, Mountain Caribou, Black Bear, Interior Grizzly Bear, Alaska Yukon Moose, Whitetail deer, Mule deer, Sitka Blacktail deer and Mountain Lion are still on the agenda for 2013... Let everyone know who your favorite Alaskan bowhunter is!!

Teaser video comig soon!!"

Nick When I met him 2 years ago he told me that he was an Ex Navy SEAL who was wounded in Afghanistan. This I know isnt true!
Stringgunner I hear you bro Im all for playing devils advocate, giving people there dues and besides I never said his story wasnt true....Im sure in his head its all real. All I said is that his photo shop skills have improved. If all this is an elaborate hoax that hes been caught up in I will be the first to eat crow, publicly apologize and let him punch me in the d*ck but Im not to worried about that.

If anyone else needs any other proof hes a con artist call Hoppie at Osceola outfitters or Russel Knight at Knights Taxidermy or any other of the handfull of people that hes lied to scammed or stolen from.

The thread Wyo_Elk posted was pulled from his face book page where it was posted for over a week until someone called him out on it and then it disappeared and he said his account was hacked.

Doug,

Not really obvious to me why this guy is a scumbag...I don't follow the logic trail here.

You have to read the whole thing.
He never shot this bear in the picture, photoshopped himself in and changed the color on the bear. Ontop of this being a so call television outdoor host used the picture to promote himself to his sponsors. This apparently was not the first anilmal he has BS'ed about there was a monster elk he took credit for as well.

I hope that bow set up is just for target. I couldn't imagine actually hunting with a target scope!

I can't believe I wasted 30 min going thru that thread.

He appears to be a scumbag.

That would be too easy. He tried using someone else's pictures but got caught....

Never heard of him before this but do hope he can be exposed. A dishonest guy like this isn't someone we need "representing" us.

Doug,

Thanks for sharing. It's not that the whole photo shop and lie about the bear he killed that get's me... it's saying your a military veteran!

ouch

I'm sorry, but any sponsor that actually listens to some guy that comes in his office and introduces himself as "Rowdy Dowdy" deserves what he gets.

Obviously this guy has some serious pathological issues.
