I saw your picture back sometime in the nineties on the front of a Texas magazine. Hence the flashlight mounted on your gun .
Great story’s
A very likable guy with a very interesting life and experiences. God Bless you Charles.
Definitely a legend
Definitely a living legend
These 2 dislikes...might that be the game Warden & his wife 😂
Most people don't think anything about poaching , till the assholes are poaching their deer .
True hunter ( id consider him a trespasser more the a poacher
For sure other than shooting several per season. My pap and uncle taught me to hunt and that was their way back then too. Times change and so do people.
Question: Have you ever trespassed in your lifetime?
You never know about public land that for sure good stories
I've always questioned where all the racks from these stories go to. would like to see some pictures to go along with the stories.
Great story
They must not know bout me, LoL 😅. Seriously, much respect,Sir
I'd be an outlaw with Charlie if I was in my prime in his days. 😄 🤣..I was still a little guy when he was jumping the fence..much respect to charlie for doing what he loved without FEAR!
I love the story's, I no a few people like him.
Legend
Legend simple as that
This man simply jumped the fence, and hunted like not many has.
Charles is just telling his story!
Love hearing the story east Texas hunt. Opening day of rifle sucks but i hit the woods hard Opening bow
This ol boy was one tough little rascal no doubt …
A lot of people call Charles a poacher but in my eyes he’s not a poacher per say, he’s an outlaw hunter. Poaching is riding the roads or shooting one under spot lights, he was actually hunting those deer. He was staying for days, weeks even and hunting hard, that’s outlaw hunting. I’ve known poachers and they don’t cull anything if it’s brown it’s down. Poachers don’t care about the deer herd where a hunter or in this case outlaw hunter is practicing management
This is a great interview. Almost ruined by the amount of ads though.
Think you got enough ads?
Too many commercials
Charles for president
Whitetail big buck hunting,best addiction to suffer from .
Those ranch owners paid for her defence to jail you and keep you off their ranches.
The guy who is hosting the podcast sounds like the guy from drag illustrated? Is it Buck
It’s not poaching the land owners don’t own the wild animals the animals just happen to live on the land it’s just hunting without permission lol anyone who has hunted or fished there whole life has at one point done something illegal I know I have more than once
To the people that say “he just wants to be famous for breaking the law” are obviously not over 8 years old
Where is Betty now ??
I'm glad he never got caught on the king ranch is an joke
They have more security than most small towns, Check out Butch and Mike Thompson, Kingsville Texas.
Only thing the seems so fishy is that with helicopters an full force no one thought to bring a dog lol
Beaty is a badass. But this is the worst interview I’ve heard from him the interviewer was bad
If he’s donating all the proceeds he’s currently generating from previous criminal activity…well done. Giving to God? Well done. Because Robin Hood he ain’t. He"s a trophy horn poacher. His game was horns and nothing more.
By far the worst podcast Charles has been on so far. I’ve listened to em all!
He can't measure deer because in his story he explains this buck as 190 with 20 points that the tines are so tight they are like your fingers with a 20 inch spread and mass with long tines perfect frame. Well do the math guys if the where just 6 inches long it would go over 200. But ok cool. I still like the guy. Good storyline just do the math before you tell the stories my friend.
