The issue many refer to is not the fact that your hunting buddies in camp would not tag the moose you shot, it is because it wasn't legal - the whole process wasn't legal. Even if your buddy DID tag it the process is illegal. Your outlook was your buddy was a dick for not tagging it and the moose went rotten - and some thought to support that but in the end it wasn't legal. You had a handshake deal that went south - that you keep to yourself and the CO, its not interesting reading.
Its done and you owned up to it, but when hunting is looked at by the public as being unnecessary and treated like hunters disobey the law and shoot everything it doesn't help the cause much when a guy comes onto a website and brags about his first moose kill as being the one he shot illegally and his buddy wouldn't tag it and then top it off that the moose went rotten. The hunting community does not condone that activity and that is where the backlash is coming from.
Think before you speak and some details maybe are not necessary for everyone to know, its not my ego its just what you said.
Has nothing to do with Covid or Vancouver so please don't deflect like its someone else fault.
