Lily Balkcom, a member of the neotraditional country music trio The Castellows, is facing criticism after sharing a hunting photo on her Instagram account. Balkcom, who typically posts content related to her music career, recently sparked controversy with a picture of herself posing with a buck she had harvested.
The post, which featured the caption “Good buck, great guide ,” quickly drew mixed reactions. While some of Balkcom’s followers supported her love for hunting, others expressed disappointment and anger, particularly over the trophy photo.
“Hunting is one thing, but taking pictures of death and smiling is horrible!” one follower commented, expressing their sadness over the image.
Hunting, especially trophy hunting, remains a polarizing topic, with strong opinions on both sides. Despite the backlash, Balkcom has yet to comment further on the controversy. Her decision to share the photo has sparked a wider debate about the ethics of hunting and its portrayal on social media.
