Anybody remember this member: “wouldbeking”?

Hi,
With the twists and turns of life, I drift in and out of this site. I'm sure many can relate.
Recently, I have been trying to see if members I used to enjoy reading, are still around.
There was one guy, really into hog hunting, might be in CA, I recall a user name of "wouldbeking" or similar. (Might have been ten years ago)

Anybody know if he is still around?
Thanks,
Rich

Hmmmmm. I remember some of his posts. Haven't seen any for a number of years. Don't know what happened.

Maybe Kingwouldbe?

Kenny, thanks, that was it!

Yeah I remember him. He made a real cool video about sharpening grizzly broadheads.

I remember Kingwouldbe. He slayed plenty of those CA hogs. Used to enjoy his stories.

I remember seeing a bloodtrail from one of his grizzlies. It was like a fire bombing aircraft had dumped a payload of blood.

I particularly remember a hero pic with a huge Cuban cigar in mouth. Something in the story about escaping the city- "it was a good day. I didn't have to break out the AK".

I remember KWB....from a quick search looks like his last post was 11 years ago. Doesn't seem that long.

Rich LaBombard · October 13, 2020, 08:00:35 AM

Yes, he had great posts and pics, I was surprised to see the last post at eleven years ago. I hope he is doing ok.

Really enjoyed his hunts with his celebratory cigar! I do hope he is well.

Checked on LW. His last post was 5/16/19.

I remember him well. Someone broke into his house or vehicle and stole all of his stuff a few years ago. Several of us helped re-equip him. I sent him some binoculars. Can't remember why he left this site. He used to post some on Traditional Bowhunter magazine website. He was a hog killer!

He was a good hunter and fellow very good to share his experiences too bad that he isn't here anymore.

azhunter · October 13, 2020, 10:49:02 PM

I used to like reading his posts. He sure killed a lot of hogs in California. Sometimes he could be a little controversial and I think he liked it that way. He was on another forum up until last year so not sure if he just doesn't get on the forums much anymore. Hope all is well with him.

In one of his topic he made a wig out of pig skin he just arrowed to look like Elvis Presley. So funny! I enjoyed very much his topics.

The Vanilla Gorilla · October 18, 2020, 12:46:08 PM

I enjoyed his stories too.

But someone told me he got banned but i cant recall what for.

trad_bowhunter1965 · October 18, 2020, 01:18:30 PM

He's still around he post on Instagram and FB he gave me a file like the one he did the broadhead sharping video. Nice Guy.

Rich LaBombard · October 19, 2020, 12:24:46 PM

Wow. Great to hear. What name is he posting under? I would definitely reach out and say hi.

Thanks. I dropped a note over there. It's great to see him again, he sure knows what he is doing!

buckeyebowhunter · October 19, 2020, 02:04:11 PM

Seems like there are a lot of people that no longer post that used to post frequently with some cool stories and pics. Seems like the site was booming about 10 years ago and not so much anymore.
