Hunting is hunting with whatever legal weapon, so he did nothing wrong. However, I'm old so I absolutely don't get the fascination with posting everything you do online so everyone can see. The reality that we as firearms owners, or spear, or bow hunters can't seem to accept, is that the majority of people who see an animal killed, will be horrified. I realize you have a right to post videos, but the more it is done, the more we will lose sympathy with the public and therefore with politicians. Politicians are only interested in votes, and there aren't enough of us, so we lose.
I am middle age, and this is just my opinion....... I had no issue with his posting of his kill......... His celebration bothered me and I could see this coming a mile away........ But we are all different....
He worked hard at his craft..... He delivered a solid kill shot, and the animal died within 60 yards...... Not bad at all.... But, if you are going to post on social media, you need to understand the general public and the perception....... This looked like a gloat to me......
IMOP, and IMOP only, he showed no remorse for the animal...... I respect every animal I harvest.....
But, he acted like a freak after the throw, and laid claim to something he knew nothing about (something nobody had ever done).....
I won't judge him, but I will say that my most exuberant reaction after a harvest was a fist pump...... And that was after harvesting a sought after wolf.....
He did nothing wrong, and the ban is BS...... But he sure didn't help........
