[QUOTE="woodsman04, post: 5118095, member: 19488"] It will all go back to what they define as commercial. The way I read it for sure you would have to have the permit if you were hunting on tv from a mainstream channel like the outdoor channel. These you tubers, I don’t think that’s really commercial. I assume they make money on advertisements or what not, but they don’t actually get paid to do it like the so called “pros” do. either way, it sounds like a step in the right direction. Im 110% all for folks videoing their hunts and posting on you tube for people to see. It’s great because most of the time it is real turkey hunting with no blinds or decoys. You also don’t get the im better than you stuff as you would with the main tv guys, “especially with trophy buck hunting.” But they have severely negatively impacted several public lands that I grew up hunting. Used to some of the large wilderness National Forest lands you could drive or walk enough to find a bird that ain’t been messed with. In the last 3 years I bet pressure has quadrupled. Just having more drive and wanting it more don’t cut it anymore. My drive to hunt and call up a wild turkey is greater than anyone’s. I may have more drive than anyone else in those woods, but when there is 10 of them and 1 of me it takes a lot to find a spot by yourself. I now shy away from hunting public because to me, it’s not enjoyable to have to fight for spots or birds. I completely understand if they come in from a different direction or neither one of us knows who is where or what not. And public ain’t the only spots that’s dangerous. Hunting clubs are now way over ran with turkey hunters, and to me it’s worse because since they pay their dues, some folks think it’s “their” turkeys. Turkey hunting is a special sport. I hate what it’s become. I truly hope that it’s just a fad and it will all go away. I don’t duck hunt, but I feel for the old duck hunters that now have to fight because of Duck Commander made it so popular. I’m selfish about turkeys, and I don’t care what anyone thinks. If you don’t cherish them and appreciate them, I don’t think you deserve to hunt them. [/QUOTE]
