They don't effect me at all, I don't watch them.

I watch it strictly for entertainment...that is, when I watch it at all.

Its all about the money boys and girls, the hunting industry is absolutely no different, its all about the money!!!!


Exactly! If I had one, I'd push the sponsors products even if I didn't like the product...it's the money

Interesting.....that is where I am different I guess. My moral fiber would not allow me to promote ANY product that I did not believe in myself.

I saw a show where I guy discussed seeing 120 P and Y bucks during a season before making a kill (please note, 120 is not the score, that is the number of P and Y bucks seen) Now where are you hunting that you see 120 P and Y bucks during a season as I would seriously question whether or not that is behind a fence.

If you chose to hunt high fences, that is fine, but don't equate your success with your hunting ability.

Personally, I'd like to see a show that addresses public land hunting. I'm not talking about focusing on filming kills per say (they would need a lot of extra tape), but a show that addresses the realities of public land hunting in different states.

I understand where your coming from Andy, but its part of the business. Tournament fishing is the same way. I used to get a new boat every year from Nitro/Tracker Marine/ Bass pro shops. Nitro was not my first choice but when it was free I loved it and told everyone how much I loved it. Same with all my other sponsors, it was easy telling people how well a 'predator spinnerbait' worked when I had an unlimited supply for free, etc. etc. Im sure Tiger Woods may not have really liked Nike clubs to begin with, but ask him now and I guarantee you he loves them! ITS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY!!!! ;\)

You could film most of this show in your living room, as their would be very little Killing going on! And that wont sell tape, it takes killing, and killing Big bucks to sell tape, which is exactly why the most succesful shows are killing big bucks, lots of them! MONEY!!!!!!! Bottom line is you have to take these shows for what they are worth or you are going to be really disappointed down the road!

I enjoy watching most of'em, some more than others. I realize they gotta plug all their sponsers, after all, somebody has to pay for the air time. I just like see'n them "big boys" make their way in and get wack'd....gets the old adrenalin surge'n.

Like I said, that is where I am different. I will let the FAKE people promote BS products and I will continue making my money by taking a different approach. ;\)
