No it is not jealously at all. It is saddening to see what hunting has become, actually sickening. The fact is simple, Brownlee did not find this buck, he paid for the information that led him to this buck (I am sure more of this story will come out). If you are not disturbed by the money and commercialization of wildlife then it is probably pointless to argue with you. For many, Brownlee, Mossback, etc. are a major concern. When too much money gets involved, people do not play by the rules. The rules set in place to insure fair chase, ethics, safety etc. He and others like him are more concerned about money, profit, etc. When those motivations become the driving force for any activity it is concerning.
The animal is impressive, but the method used to harvest is not... Pay enough money and anyone can shoot that type of buck. Do we really want a future where this is acceptable and becomes status quo?
