Mark Sullivan the Expose’

[Wishfulthinker580]

I post late at nite because I have troubles sleeping. I have troubles sleeping because I was shot five times and my legs burn and don’t let me sleep! I have served and I have also been in a gunfight and I will tell you that things happen so fast you react purely off of instinct and training!
This is exactly as a PH would deal with in a charge at close quarters! So the fact that you can’t understand the comparison is understandable as YOU have not served, YOU have not seen combat, and YOU have not have not been in a close call with dangerous game!
So I find it intellectually dishonest and disingenuous that YOU would even comment not having ever had any experience with these scenarios that I listed. And I find it not only disrespectful but troubling that YOU think it’s ok to not only have opinion that attacks someone who has had these experiences but would post it as nonsense! I can see the terrible decision making on your part is still ongoing!
You have some serious issues! I have a suggestion, go enlist like I did and serve your country! I’m done with you!!!

My opinion stands and there are plenty of members who share that sentiment with me whose have experienced such things.. If I could go back in time I might join up. Wouldn’t make a lot of sense for me now. For a number of reasons. Haranguing me has absolutely no effect so calm down. You have my sympathy for your legs. Hopefully you got some/are getting some rest. Thanks for your service. We’re done here.

Found this on Youttube. Though it could be a nice addition to this thread.
Sounds like Sullivan is a baby compared to this guy.

(First time I hear about him)
Killed bear with a knife, buffalo shot from ground up, vertical shot through the chin, revolver etc...

Well, not my cup of tea, and not my type of hunting, but as I said, could be interesting addition to this thread.
How realistic is it I dont know, but story teller he is. Very specific person,

There are quite a few members of this forum who over the last twenty years have led rather dramatic lives. They make people like Sullivan and his ilk look like the posers they truly are. You will not find one of them bragging about their exploits.

Not directed at you @Red Leg, just using your quote as a reference. Taylor, Ruark, Capstick, Patterson, Boddington, et.al. all essentially bragged about their exploits and they don't get dinged. Mark Sullivan is no poser despite anyone's opinion of him as a person or a PH. "It's not bragging if you can do it." I'll bet not one client has ever been forced to hunt with Mark against their will not knowing his style. I remember when his videos first came out, about the same time Phil Robertson started making his duck hunting videos (way before the Duck Dynasty stuff). We LOVED them. Then his big books came out (which I have) and I still read them all the time. I would say the more recent videos featuring Mark show him to be more mellowed out in his old age. I've always been a fan since the early days.
