Hunter Refutes Deer Shooting Boasts at Templeton Market
Manweiler defends claim of shooting a 235 pound buck during open season near Templeton on August 11. A photo taken by his wife allegedly shows the stag as proof, while market friends posted a counter boast in the Shafter Press claiming the story is a joke. A lost and found note lists a missing six point buck from Templeton since August 11, 1950 with a $ reward.
